Integrated Problem Solving: End-of-Year Review
Students apply a range of mathematical concepts from across the year to solve complex, multi-step problems and reflect on their mathematical growth.
Key Questions
- Which mathematical skills and strategies have we learned this year, and when is each most useful?
- How can we combine concepts from numbers, measurement, geometry, and data to solve a single problem?
- How do we communicate our problem-solving process clearly and justify our solutions?

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
