Performance tasks involve the application of knowledge and skills rather than recall and result in tangible products or observable performances. They involve meaning-making, encourage self-evaluation and revision, require judgment to score and are evaluated using predetermined criteria (rubrics).
The videos and student materials below are based on the following sixth grade performance tasks:
- Arrays, Factors, and Number Theory (Unit 2)
- Cupid Targets Fractions and Recipes (Unit 3)
- Re-carpeting the Classroom (Unit 7)
