In this Grade 5 Math instructional guide, students apply their knowledge related to multiplying fractions by whole numbers through three tasks connected to real-world contexts in cooking, community celebration, and event planning.

• Practice Task 1 (50 min) — Students select a number of 5th-grade classes to feed and calculate the scaled-up ingredient amounts needed to bake cookies for all of them, showing their reasoning using equations, labels, and models

• Practice Task 2 (70 min) — Students select a combination of culturally meaningful fabrics to create ʻOhana Day banners, calculating costs in fractional yard increments to spend as close to an $80 budget as possible without going over

• End-of-Unit Performance Task (75 min) — Students plan a pūpū menu for their 5th-grade graduation celebration, selecting appetizers and multiplying fractional quantities by whole numbers to calculate total costs within a given budget

In this Grade 5 Math instructional guide, students apply their knowledge and skills related to decimals through three tasks connected to real-world contexts in community service, campus beautification, and emergency preparedness.

• Practice Task 1 (60 min) — Students select car wash supplies from a menu, calculate total expenses using decimal multiplication, then determine whether a car wash fundraiser would generate enough profit to donate at least $250 to a local charity

• Practice Task 2 (60 min) — Students calculate the profit per item for a class art sale, then determine how many items — individually and in combination — they would need to sell to raise at least $520 for school mural supplies, justifying their reasoning

• End-of-Unit Performance Task (60 min) — Students choose a type of emergency kit and the number of people it will serve, select items to include, and use all four decimal operations to calculate the total cost and cost per person

Standards: 5.NBT.B.7, 5.NBT.A.4, K-12.MP.1-6

In this Grade 5 Math instructional guide, students apply their knowledge and skills related to adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers through three tasks connected to real-world contexts in food preparation, community wellness, and class celebration planning.

• Practice Task 1 (60 min) — Students create a party mix by selecting ingredients in fractional amounts, then calculate total quantities and remaining portions using addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators

• Practice Task 2 (60 min) — Students plan a relay race called the Ola Pono Challenge by assigning fractional running distances to each teammate and verifying that combined distances equal the full 4½-mile race length

• End-of-Unit Performance Task (75 min) — Students independently plan a class celebration by selecting activities and assigning each a fractional portion of the school day, ensuring total time stays within the available allotment
