Task Sort Key

Memorization. This task involves reproducing facts, is not ambiguous, and focuses on getting correct answers.The student is not required to give an explanation of their work, just two ways to solve.	Memorization. Involves reproducing facts/rules, no connections to concepts or explanation required.	Memorization. Like Task E, this task involves reproducing facts/rules, no connection to concepts or explanation required.
Procedures Without Connections. Algorithmic problem that does not require the student to make connections to concepts or provide an explanation of their answer. The student is just reproducing algorithmic facts.	Memorization. This task is simply algorithmic that focuses on getting the correct answer. It requires no explanation of the answer.	Procedures Without Connections. This task does not require students to think past the algorithm and does not require an explanation of their answers.
Procedures Without Connections. This task may appear to be HCD upon first glance, but it only asks one question and then provides multiple ways to solve the problem. The student just must decide how they would solve the problem.

Doing Mathematics. This task can be represented in multiple ways since the student is asked to come up with their own problem. Students must also understand subtraction to complete this task.	Procedures with Connections. This task can, also, be represented in multiple different ways since students have to come up with a number sentence for each scenario. It requires cognitive effort to be able to connect with each scenario and create a sentence out of it.	Procedures with Connections. This task focuses attention on use of procedures for understanding and requires the students to explore and understand subtraction and addition. Students must understand place value and be able to connect it to the standard algorithm.
Doing Mathematics. This is a multi-step task that requires self-monitoring. Students are asked to come up with their own solution and explain how they did it.	Procedures with Connections. This task requires deeper understanding of addition and subtraction to be able to explain how the answer is correct with either method. Students will have to make connections between addition and subtraction to be able to answer this task.
