|Grade Level: 1 |

|Mathematics Domain and Cluster: |

|Domain: Operations and Algebraic Thinking |

|Cluster: Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction. |

|Common Core standard(s) being assessed (if the task is intended to assess only one part of the standard, underline that part of the standard): |

| |

|1.OA.2: Solve word problems that call for addition of three whole numbers whose sum is less than or equal to 20, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and |

|equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem. |

|Student Materials: |

|Student Assessment Task: Three Letter Addends? |

|Pencil |

|Math Tools: Provide tools that students have used to solve problems |

|You may want to gather scrabble letter tiles or create your own pieces by printing tiles on card stock and laminating and cut up paper tiles. |

|Teacher Materials: |

|Materials to keep track of student observation. |

|Directions (for teacher to administer assessment task): |

|Prepare materials: Make copies of assessment task – Three Letter Addends? |

|You may need to demonstrate where to find numbers for each word and |

|Remind students to include a number sentence for each word |

|Prompt: |

|Say: Today we need to figure out who won a spelling game. (You may need to give students background information about the game Scrabble.) |

|Say: We need to find out who spelled the word with the greatest sum. The player who spelled the word with the greatest sum is the winner. |

|Read directions on assessment task. |

|Show students where they can find how much each letter is worth. |

|Correct or Model Answer: |

| |

|Student should solve the problem by adding the numbers on each tile. |

|They should include an equation to show how they calculated the sum for each word. |

|They should then answer the question: “Which word has the greatest sum or points?” |

|Also student will answer the question: “Which word has the smallest sum?” |

| |

|Note: Answer will vary depending on words each child spells. |
