Denton Independent School District / Overview



8th Grade Math Review Bank 2014-15This collection of items came from a variety of sources, including from released assessments in and outside of the state of Texas. Only items that could be correlated to the new 8th grade TEKS were included.The items are purposefully scrambled and not grouped by strand. Part of review should involve students identifying the mathematics needed to solve the problem. During the year their practice and assessments are typically categorized, which gives them hints as to the type of mathematics they’ll need to use (a quiz over proportions, or a test over perimeter and area…). Giving students a mix of items allows the teacher to see if students can identify the mathematics needed to solve the problem, in addition to actually solving the problem.This bank should not be used as a “packet” to be distributed to students to complete in isolation. Some items may be completed individually while others can be completed in pairs or with small groups. What is important is that the students’ work is accompanied by discussion about strategies, and that their work is used as formative assessment data for the teacher to respond to with further instruction as needed. Some suggestions for use are listed on the following page.Suggested Structures and Strategies (to increase engagement)Math Mystery Organize students into four groups using a 4-Corners activity: Corner 1 – like Coca Cola best, Corner 2 – like Sprite best, Corner 3 – Dr. Pepper, Corner 4 – Sports Drinks, (or use vacation destinations, snacks, sports)Students practice one assessment item, targeted toward an SE that students find difficult according to the data. Four copies of the same assessment item are used (hang one in each corner).Corner groups are assigned one answer choice and must either …Defend the answer to the class as “innocent of a crime” because it is the correct response.Prosecute the answer in front of the class as “guilty of a crime” explaining why the answer is the incorrect response.Corner 1 focus on answer choice A, Corner 2 on answer choice B, Corner 3 on answer choice C, and Corner 4 answer choice D. Teacher decides to include this option: Your group MAY choose to try and trick the class by purposefully defending an incorrect answer to make the other students identify a flaw in their reasoning.Sage-N-SCRIBETeacher provides at least 2 problems for students to work in pairs.Within each pair, decide who will take on which role for the first problem (“partner with the longer hair will be the Sage for the first problem”).The Sage talks through the problem and instructs the Scribe what to write on the paper. The Scribe does not talk. He/she writes exactly what the Sage instructs, while thinking about accuracy of the Sage’s procedures (but doesn’t give feedback yet).Once the Sage is finished, the Scribe gives feedback on how the problem was solved.Pairs switch roles for the next problem.One STRAYPut students in groups of 4 and give each student a number (1, 2, 3, or 4).Groups work together to solve the first problem.Everyone must record the group’s work on his/her own paper & everyone in the group should be able to explain how the problem was solved.Once all groups are finished the teacher calls out a number (1 through 4) and says “Stray!”The selected number must go find another group and share how their original group solved the problem. Their new group listens then gives feedback and/or shares any different strategies they used. Repeat with the next problem (select a different person to “stray”).SHOWDOWNTeacher provides each group of 3-4 students with a set of problems, each one on a separate “card” (set is face down in middle of table).Each student has a dry erase board.Showdown captain turns up first problem, reads it aloud, then everyone works alone to solve. Establish a signal for when finished.When showdown captain sees all are finished, he says “1, 2, 3, SHOWDOWN!” and everyone reveals their work. Captain facilitates discussion and leads everyone in checking their answers. Once everyone agrees on a correct solution and understands the process to solve the problem, the role of Showdown Captain rotates to the next person.Tour of Knowledge1. Students are organized into groups (no more than 3 per group).2. Each group is given a different colored marker.3. Groups will rotate through stations observing a given assessment stimuli – no question and no answers(i.e. graph, table, equation, verbal description, problem scenario, etc.).4. Groups will be given three minutes at each station to record anything they know or notice about the given stimuli on the provided chart paper. Groups may not repeat previously provided information from the other groups. This is the “I Notice” or “I See” round of rotations.5. Teacher may elect to reward the group that provided the most observant information, or unique information, from each of the four posters.6. Repeat steps #1-5; however, groups will now record a question that could be asked of the provided stimulus. This is the “I Wonder” round of rotations.7. Students work a problem associated to the given stimulus, identifying what information was needed to answer the question.Optional: If using stimuli from released items, show students the original questions to see how they compare to the student-written questions.Item #KeyTEKSTeacher Notes / Student Data1A8.7D2D8.7B – readiness 3C8.11B4A8.10C– readiness5C8.5F6A8.10B7D8.7D8A8.10C– readiness9B8.5D– readiness10B8.10A11A8.4C– readiness12B; # of years when the populations are equal8.913C8.5I– readiness14B8.5D– readiness15301.448.7A– readiness16D8.5G– readiness17A8.5G– readiness18A8.3C– readiness19B8.8C– readiness20A8.5I– readiness21D8.5A22B8.5C23a) yes b) Andy’sc) Bargain Hardware8.4B & 8.5A24B8.5A25B8.5I– readiness26A8.3A27i, ii, vi8.5F28B8.10C– readiness29B8.5F30B8.8D31A8.10C32D8.7C– readiness33A8.6A34C8.8D35A8.3C– readiness36D8.5G– readiness37A8.8C– readiness38C8.5G– readiness39C8.7A– readiness40D8.8C– readiness41C8.7C– readiness42C8.4C– readiness43A8.7A– readiness44A8.4B– readiness45B8.4C– readiness46A8.5G– readiness47C8.2D– readiness48B8.5G– readiness49A8.7B– readiness50C8.7C– readiness51B8.4B – readiness52B8.3C – readiness 53D8.8D54C8.12D – readiness55B8.8D56B8.11B8th Grade Review ItemsIn the coordinate plane, what is the distance between (3, 5) and (3, 8)?
