Task 4: Mathematics Learning Segment Overview

Learning Segment Overview Directions: Briefly describe the instruction preceding the assessment by typing within
the brackets in each section of the chart below (no more than 2 single-spaced pages). Do not delete or alter the
chart; both the chart and your description are included in the total page count allowed. Refer to the evidence chart
in the handbook to ensure that this document complies with all format specifications. Pages exceeding the
maximum will not be scored.

Central Focus: State-Adopted Content Standards

[The central focus of these
lessons: students to strengthen
multiplication fluency and
problem-solving skills by
interpreting products of whole
numbers and word problems
using multiplication strategies-
equal groups, repeated
addition, number lines, and
arrays.]
Learning

[ MGSE3.OA.1 Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g.,
interpret 5 7 as the total number of objects in % groups
of 7 objects each.
MGSE3.OA.3 Use multiplication and division within 100 to
solve word problems in situations involving equal groups,
arrays, and measurement qualities, e.g., by using
drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown
number to represent the problem.]
