Progressions Document Link
Sample Show What You Know Task:Money
Mathematics Florida Standards for Mathematical Content:
Work with time and money.
MAFS.2.MD.3.8 Solve one- and two- step word problems involving dollar bills (singles, fives, tens, twenties, and hundreds) or coins (quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies) using $ and¢ symbols appropriately. Word problems may involve, addition, subtraction, and equal groups situations. Example: The cash register shows that the total for your purchase is 59¢. You gave the cashier three quarters. How much change should you receive from the cashier?
  1. Identify the value of coins and paper currency.
  2. Compute the value of any combination of coins within one dollar.
  3. Compute the value of any combinations of dollars (e.g. If you have three ten-dollar bills, one five-dollar bill, and two one-dollar bills, how much money do you have?
  4. Relate the value of pennies; nickels, dimes and quarters to other coins and the dollar (e.g., There are five nickels in one quarter. There are two nickels in one dime. There are two and a half dimes in one quarter. There are twenty nickels in one dollar)
MAFS.2.MD.3.7Tell and write from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes. / Comments:

Notes on Assessment:
Unit 7 Assessment Go Math Ch. 7
See common performance task link below.
Please administer AFTER the third GCG.
Unpacking the Standards for this Unit:
“The money standard will be easier to address than time because while one to three specific lessons may be needed in reviewing and extending prior work with monetary amounts and counting money and making change, much of the emphasis will be just considering money as a context for problem solving that will engage addition and subtraction. Time is another story. You will need to provide lessons involving digital and analog time and telling time to the nearest 5 minutes. Beyond a few specific lessons for both the time and money standards, this work should be maintained throughout the instructional year in problem-based activities within lessons or as center activities.” (Kanold)
Learning to tell time is challenging for students. They must realize that the hour hand indicates broad, approximate time while the minute hand indicates the minutes in between each hour.

Future learning:
Money is an early foundation for the later learning of decimals. In money amount, the decimal point separates the dollar from the cents. In a decimal number, the decimal point separates the ones from the tenths, hundredths, and so on. Understanding how money amounts are read will prepare children for learning about decimals. It will also prepare them to better understand prices in real-life situations.
Learning to tell time is a valuable life skill that students will use in the real world. Building a strong foundation will prepare them for future time concepts like elapsed time.

Sample HOT Questions: Use these to facilitate student discussions. (SMP 1, 3)
  • Joe says the time must be 4:55 because the hour hand is pointing at the 4. Kelly says that time is 3:55. Who do you agree with and why? (Teacher note: You will want to present a clock set to 3:55 when asking students this question.)

  • Malik was so excited to tell his class about what a fun time he had on New Year’s Eve when the ball dropped. He said it was exciting to watch fireworks first thing in the morning. Shanae told Malik that New Year’s Eve celebrations happen at night not in the morning. Since they couldn’t agree they asked their teacher who was right. What do you think the teacher should tell Shanae and Malik?

Our students arebetter able to…
  • Use precise language (quarter ‘til, quarter past, half past, o’clock, am, pm, noon, midnight) when telling time on a clock (SMP 6).
  • Tell time by recognizing patterns for the numbers on the face of the clock (counting by 5’s, or that every number also represents an hour, 15 minute intervals) (SMP 8).
For more info on SMP’s click here. / Because as teachers we…
  • Model precise language (quarter ‘til, quarter past, half past, o’clock, am, pm, noon, midnight) and insist that children use precise language when telling time (SMP 6).
  • Have class discussions about the patterns (counting by 5’s, or that every number also represents an hour, 15 minute intervals) that are evident when telling time (SMP 3, 8).
