Product description
Open-ended maths activities are integral in developing the proficiencies in the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics. This book contains both short open-ended tasks and longer investigative activities, all of which provide opportunities for students to engage in differentiated problem solving to enhance thinking, questioning, analysis and critical evaluation. In addition, there are nine sample assessment rubrics, each with five achievement levels. Student work samples for a particular task are supplied to clearly demonstrate the appropriate application of the criteria at each level. The authors encourage the use of rubrics as flexible and efficient assessment tools, and as a means to engage students in the assessment process. Practically laid out including blackline masters, this is a valuable classroom resource.
