Supporting Standards
Work with radicals and integer exponents MGSE8.EE.2 - Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations. Recognize that 𝑥2 = p (where p is a positive rational number and lxl < 25) has 2 solutions and 𝑥 3 = p
(where p is a negative or positive rational number and lxl < 10) has one solution. Evaluate square roots of perfect squares < 625 and cube roots of perfect cubes > -1000 and < 1000. MGSE8.EE.3 - Use numbers expressed in scientific notation to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other. For example, estimate the population of the United States as 3×108 and the population of the world as 7×109, and determine that the world population is more than 20 times larger.
MGSE8.EE.4 - Add, subtract, multiply and divide numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Understand scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g. use millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been generated by technology (e.g. calculators). Analyze and solve linear equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers. MGSE8.NS.2 - Use rational approximation of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., estimate √2 to the nearest tenth). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.

Performance Task 1 In Detail
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers. MGSE8.NS.1 - KNOW that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. UNDERSTAND informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers SHOW that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and CONVERT a decimal expansion, which repeats eventually into a rational number. Circumstances of Performance: In-Class (Approximate Time 40 – 50 minutes) Task 1 Student Directions: Students are All Mixed Up!!! You will use the statements below to create a card game (Ex. Concentration).
o You will create a set of cards with each statement. o You will create a set of cards which justify why the statement may be correct or ALL Mixed
Up!!! o Include the rules of the game and how to win.
Eighth grade students are sharing what they know about real numbers. Several students gave the following statements: Mario: A square root is always an irrational number. Jessica: A fraction is never an irrational number. Antonio: A decimal is sometimes an irrational number. Carol: A repeating decimal is an irrational number. John: A mixed number is not a rational number. Jada: Fractions can only change to terminating decimals when written as decimal expansion. Mohamed: To change a repeating decimal to a fraction, first write an equation by setting the decimal equal to a variable that will represent the fraction. Next, write another equation by multiplying both sides of the equation by 10 only. Then, subtract the first equation from the second equation. Finally, solve the equation by dividing both sides. Decide which student(s) is demonstrating an understanding of real numbers from his/her given statement. If a student is all “mixed up”, justify why you think the student is all mixed up with supporting evidence.
Task 1 Teacher Notes: The purpose of this task is for students to demonstrate their understanding of real number and the subsets of real numbers. Mario: A square root is always an irrational number. (Mario’s statement is incorrect because some square roots of perfect squares like 4 and 9 are natural numbers, which are also rational numbers.) Jessica: A fraction is never an irrational number. (Jessica’s statement is correct because any number that can be written as a fraction that consists of two integers is by definition a rational number.) Antonio: A decimal is sometimes an irrational number. (Antonio’s statement is correct because a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal is an irrational number.) Carol: A repeating decimal is an irrational number. (Carol’s statement is incorrect because a repeating decimal can be converted to a rational number written in the form of two integers a/b.) John: A mixed number is not a rational number. (John’s statement is incorrect because a mixed can be written in the form of two integers a/b). Jada: Fractions can only change to terminating decimals when written as decimal expansion. (Jada’s statement is incorrect because a fraction can convert to terminating and repeating decimals.)

Circumstances of Performance: In-Class (Approximate Time 75-90 minutes)
Task 2 Student Directions: Radicals, Exponents and Scientific Notation Part A Matching the Rule to the Property Eighth grade students are confused when using the properties of integer exponents. They do not know when to add, subtract, or multiply the exponents. They are puzzled as to why any number (except zero) raised to the zero power is 1. They don’t know what to do when the negative exponent is in the numerator or the denominator. They need your help. Your job is to:

Performance Task 2 In Detail
o Create an interactive game which compares and explains the different properties of integer exponents so they know when to apply the appropriate property.
o In the game students should be able to match the rule to the property o Provide at least 2 examples for each property (Product of Power Property, Power of a Power
Property, Power of a Product Property, Zero Exponent Rule, and Negative Exponent Rule).
Part B GiantBurger! You have done a fabulous job of creating a game that explains the properties of integer exponents to the eighth grade students. Omar was interested in figuring out how learning about the integer properties relates to real-life. He came across the newspaper ad below: “Every day, 7% of Americans eat at GiantBurger restaurants”. Omar was curious if this was a true statement. Help Omar decide whether this headline is true using the following information. • There are about 8 x 103 GiantBurger restaurants in America. • Each restaurant serves about 2.5 x 103 people every day. • There are about 3 x 108 Americans.
o Explain your reasons and show clearly how you figured it out. o Explain to Omar how the properties of exponents and knowledge of working with scientific
notation can help interpret the ad? Task 2 Teacher Notes: In Part A students will create a game which teaches the properties and characteristics of integer exponents: Product of Power Property, Power of a Power Property, Power of a Product Property, Zero Exponent Rule, and Negative Exponent Rule. Task 2 B Teacher Notes: In Part B, students will use properties of exponents and scientific notation to evaluate a newspaper headline. This task can be very engaging and may be adapted to fast food chains nearby. Through the mathematics exploration of this task, students evaluate whether a fast food chain’s claims are reasonable. This task is found at http://www.map.mathshell.org/tasks.php?collection=9&unit=HA18. Extension of the task(Part B): The percentage estimate you discovered should not be exactly 7%, but it should be close. Your job is to investigate what looks like a small percentage difference and determine if the difference is significant. Using the percentage, you calculated, determine about how many people eat at GiantBurger each day. If 7% of Americans eat at GiantBurger each day, how many people would that be? What is the difference in the two? Is GiantBurger overestimating based on your answer or underestimating? How many people would they be overestimating/underestimating by in a week? In a month? If you originally stated that their headline using 7% is true, do you still feel this way? Why or why not? Can a small difference in a percentage make a big difference in actual values? Explain. If you originally stated that their headline using 7% was not true, do you still feel that way? Do you now have additional data to back up your claims? Explain.

Teachers should implement the listed experiences to support core instruction on the math standards. Teachers should model the SMP during the 3-Part Lesson Structure.
Teachers should use the assessments to support student learning at all levels. The unit pre-assessment should be administered prior to unit instruction for diagnostic purposes.
o Differentiate instruction based upon the pre-assessment results. o Make modifications to the pacing based upon student pre-assessment results and the daily analysis of student work. o Implement the Formative Assessment Lesson (FAL) to monitor the progress of students during the instructional unit. o Introduce the learning targets on a daily basis in kid friendly language using “I Can” statements. o Provide instruction using the Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) sequence of instruction. o Utilize the Gradual Release Model of Responsibility (I do, We do, You do) during instruction to support student learning of
concepts/skills. o Use UPS Check and the 3 Read Protocol for the Problem Solving Process. o Use Newman’s Prompt to diagnose the hurdles students face while problem solving. o Incorporate Mathematical Visualization to model math concepts, skills, and problem solving.
o Remind students that mistakes are respected, expected, and inspected in the mathematics classroom.
