Performance Indicators Students will be able to:	Essential Elements (Specific grade level learning objectives)			Suggested Performance Activities	Suggested Classroom Assessments	Vocabulary
1. Create and use organized lists, tree diagrams, Venn diagrams, and networks.	Read the problem and determine task. Select most efficient strategy. Develop and carry out task.			Students use Venn diagrams to organize data (ex.: students who wore a sweater and/or students who walked to school) Tree diagrams: Houghton Mifflin '95 p. 376-379. Organized list: Charting various combinations of coins to equal $1.00.	Organized Lists: "Barn Full of animals" Jackie Labatte Tree Diagram: "Super Bowl Sunday" Exemplars winter 2000	organized list tree diagram Venn diagram network
2. Give examples of infinite and finite solutions.	Discuss and respond to a variety of statements which require either infinite or finite solutions. (Ex. of an infinite solution: How many numbers are greater than 10,000?)			Make up number sentences requiring either finite or infinite solutions.	LAD task: Finite and Infinite.	infinite finite solutions
