Pro Tip: Searching based on the standards or the big idea can help you embed the materials in your curriculum scope and sequence.
This Rich Math Tasks volume contains a collection of learner-centered mathematical challenges for students in grades 3-12. Everything you will find in this volume was designed by Hawaiʻi teachers for Hawaiʻi students as part of the ongoing, HIDOE-led Performance Assessment Development Initiative (PADI). These tasks have been thoughtfully crafted, piloted, and revised to serve as high-quality classroom-based tools that gauge student understanding and actively enhance learning and engagement.
This booklet is designed to be easy to print, either in its entirety or by selecting the pages of PDF you'd like to use. You can also find these tasks within the math instructional guides posted with their accompanying end-of-unit tasks under the "math" tab.
