Homework Assignment
Pre-Conference Homework Assignment
BASIC FACTS
Administer some or all of the Power of TenTM ‘All the Facts’ sheets in your class.
Instruct the class to only do those questions they know and can do without counting or using their fingers
or a ruler. They should do the easy ones first so that they get as many done as possible in the time given.
For students doing the multiplication facts, please ensure that no multiplication grids are available.
In Grade One, the teacher may have to circle the zeros or the ones so students get the idea that they
actually know some.
It is not a race so don’t tell them the time limits. You may vary the limits but whenever you see a student
counting please write ‘Counting’ on the sheet.
A sample copy of each Basic Facts sheet is attached to this assignment.

STORY PROBLEMS
Have students try the story problem for their grade level. Instruct them to show or explain (on paper)
how they got their answer.
Grade 2
Marie had 31 Halloween candies. She ate 17.

Their goal is to raise $5 per pupil and they have 325 students in the school.
How much do they still have to raise?
Grade 4 [Alternate Problem]
Robert Wadlow, the tallest man who ever lived, was 272 cm tall.
The tallest person in a typical Grade Four class might be 156 cm tall.
How much taller is Robert Wadlow?
Grade 5+
The parents at the school are trying to build a new playground.
The cost is $13 944. So far, they have raised $4 997.
How much more money do they need to raise?
Grade 5+ [Alternate Problem]
Brad, Manjeet, Carlos and Sam went out for Halloween.
Each chose different streets. They each got the following candies or other treats:
Brad = 141, Manjeet = 193, Carlos = 165 and Sam = 162.
They decided to put all their treats together and share them equally.
How many did each student get?
•
If students finish, have them write a story problem of their own using the question given as a frame.
•
Ask them to show how they would solve their own problem.
•
If students have trouble getting started, ask them to copy the problem off the sheet
(or the board if that’s how you give it to them).

HOW MANY WAYS
Give the students in your class about ten minutes to write as many equations as they can for the given
number. Have them do this on blank paper. When you bring the results to the workshop try to arrange
the results from weakest to strongest. Use your gut reaction as the criteria. This will allow us to discuss
how to establish criteria for marking this exercise.

What Do I Know [Alternate Activity for Grades 4 and up]
Give the students in your class about ten minutes to write as many equations
as they can that are connected to the given equation. Have them do this on
blank paper. They can web their answers. Write the equation in the middle of
the paper then web any connections that they know are related to the
equation given. When you bring the results to the workshop try to arrange
the results from weakest to strongest. Use your gut reaction as the criteria.
This will allow us to discuss how to establish criteria for marking this exercise.
