Definition of Modeling/Application:
"The student solves real-world problems with a degree of difficulty appropriate to 5th grade by applying knowledge and skills articulated in the standards for the current grade (or for more complex problems, knowledge and skills articulated in the standards from 4th grade), engaging particularly in the Modeling practice, and where helpful making sense of problems and persevering to solve them (MP. 1),reasoning abstractly and quantitatively (MP. 2), using appropriate tools strategically (MP.5), looking for and making use of structure (MP.7), and/or looking for and expressing regularity in repeated reasoning (MP.8)."
Solve multi-step contextual word problems with degree of difficulty appropriate to Grade 5, requiring application of knowledge and skills articulated in Type I, Sub-Claim A Evidence Statements.
- Tasks may have scaffolding.
- Multi-step problems must have at least 3 steps.
- For purposes of assessment, the possibilities for multiplication are 1-digit x 2- digit, 1-digit x 3-digit, 2-digit x 3-digit, 2-digit x 4-digit, or 3-digit x 3-digit.
Solve multi-step contextual problems with degree of difficulty appropriate to Grade 5, requiring application of knowledge and skills articulated in 4.OA, 4.NBT, 4.NF, 4.MD.
- Tasks may have scaffolding, if necessary, in order to yield a degree of difficulty appropriate to Grade 5.
- Multi-step problems must have at least 3 steps.

Level 5: Exceeds Expectations
In connection with the content knowledge, skills, and abilities described in Sub-claim A, the student devises a plan and applies mathematics to solve multi-step, real-world contextual word problems by:
- using stated assumptions or making assumptions and using approximations to simplify a real-world situation
- analyzing and/or creating constraints, relationships and goals
- mapping relationships between important quantities by selecting appropriate tools to create models
- analyzing relationships mathematically between important quantities to draw conclusions
- justifying and defending models which lead to a conclusion
- interpreting mathematical results in the context of the situation
- reflecting on whether the results make sense
- improving the model if it has not served its purpose
- writing a concise arithmetic expression or equation to describe a situation
