Station Expectations

Stations 1–2: Voice 0 • Stations 3–4: Voice 2

CConversation: Voice 0 at independent stations; Voice 2 at collaborative stations.
HHelp: Reread directions first. Collaborative stations: ask your group, then teacher.
AActivity: Complete the task at your assigned station and record work on the follow-along.
MMovement: Stay at your station. Move only when the transition timer starts.
PParticipation: Work the entire time. At group stations, every person contributes.
SSuccess: Record your work, reset materials, and be ready to rotate when time is called.
Current reminder: Begin at your assigned station. Have your follow-along ready.
Today’s Stations

Skills + Mathematical Reasoning

Keep your follow-along with you at every station.

Station 1 • Independent • Voice 0

Number Sense Challenge

Solve each challenge carefully. Show enough work to make your thinking visible.

Station 2 • Independent • Voice 0

Math Would You Rather?

Choose an option, use mathematics to support it, and justify why your choice makes sense.

Station 3 • Collaborative • Voice 2

Which One Doesn’t Belong?

Complete 3 cards. Record your choice and reasoning, then capture a different group idea.

Station 4 • Collaborative • Voice 2

Make the Target

Start with Card 1 and work in order. Test, revise, and explain the strategy your group uses.

Success Criteria: I can accurately solve problems with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and integers; compare choices and determine whether a solution is reasonable; justify my thinking with numbers, equations, words, or models; and work independently and collaboratively to test, revise, and communicate strategies.
