Assessment Summary
Entry Level

 KWL – What do you know about hunger?

o Students will complete a K-W-L Chart about hunger before, during and after the class discussion.
 Class Discussion – What do you know about hunger?
 o As the question is broad, it is a possibility that the discussion may not reach the level of global
hunger in its seriousness or intensity.

Formative

 Double Entry Journal – Reflecting about world hunger

o Students will complete a double entry journal reflecting on quotes and quick-facts about world
hunger. They will be graded on a rubric that takes format and citation into account.
 Ratios, Rates, Proportions, and Percents Quiz
o Students will take a paper-based test that reviews basic arithmetic and algebraic skills that will
be frequently used throughout the unit. The paper-based test will allow for a better assessment
of student skills as students would be able to easily show their work and process.
 Frayer Model
o Students will complete a Frayer Model comparing good vs. bad graphs. Students will be
challenged to come up with actual examples of a good vs. bad graph in conjunction to their
graphic organizer.
 Quizlet Live – Decimals Review
o Students will review decimal operations via quizlet live. This gamification of assessments is to
promote engagement and to ensure that students are able to appropriately work with decimals
as their work would greatly influence their results and interpretation throughout the unit.
 Webercise – Investigating World Hunger
o Students will complete a webercise that requires them to visit various websites, view clips, and
even play an interactive simulation game. These various activities guide students through the
complex web of causes and effects and everything in between that entangles the issue of world
hunger.
 Fish Diagram – what are the most important factors you need to consider to eradicate world hunger?
o Based on their research and learning thus far, students will determine the root causes to world
hunger
o This assessment will also serve to group students with similar ideas
 Solutions to Hunger Proposal – How will you maximize your $1?
o Students will work in groups to create a proposal to begin eradicating world hunger. Their
proposal must contain a written and mathematical justification of why they believe their plans
will work.
 Gallery Walk
o Students will have a gallery walk to showcase their own work as well as to observe the work of
other groups; they will be given post-it notes to leave three positive comments
o Students will be asked to give a comment for each poster, one that is either: complimentary or
constructive

Summative

 Group Poster/Gallery Walk

o Students will create a group poster summarizing and displaying their proposal and its possible
potential benefits
 Shark Tank Presentation
o Each group will create a 10 minute presentation based on their proposal. Each student in class
will have a total of $100 to invest in the presentations of their choice.
 Quick-Write: How can mathematical modeling help us find possible solutions to real-world problems?
o Students will complete a quick-write to this prompt on a Google Doc and submit it via Google
Classrooms. This will allow for sharing of thoughtful student responses for the debrief
discussion.
 Debrief Discussion
o After the unit has been completed, students will part take in a debrief discussion to share their
findings and reflections
