• Start at 67 and count on– Stop the student after 5 numbers

Question 2: Number Sense

• Count by 10’s to 100

Questions 3-4: Number Sense

• Provide students with counters or any available manipulative

• Tell student to write the number 0• If students write incorrect number, correct him or her before

continuing to the next question

Note: If student writes a single digit backwards, it is still counted as correct.

Question 5-6: Number Sense

• Show the number 13

• Ask students:– What is the number that comes before 13? – What is the number that comes after 13?

• Repeat for the number 76

Question 7: Number Sense

• Using flashcards, have students order the numbers 19, 20, and 21 from least to greatest

Question 8: Number Sense

• Give students 23 counters

• Have them make groups of ten

• Ask students “How many groups of ten?”

Question 9: Number SenseFill in the number for tens and ones using the base ten blocks.

tens ones

Question 10: Number Sense

13Using the manipulatives, show me this number in tens and ones.

Question 11: Computation

• Jake has three crayons. His friend gives him two more crayons. How many crayons does he have in all?

Question 12: Computation

• Crystal has ten erasers. She gave three to her friend. How many erasers does she have left?

Question 13: Computation/Algebraic Concepts

• Complete the number sentence using the following symbols (+ - = )

5 5 10

Question 14: Computation

• Complete TWO number sentences using the following symbols (+ - = )

5 3 2

• Give student 8 counters• Ask student to separate counters into two groups

and write an equation that represents the object. • Repeat one time.

Question 15: Computation

Possible Answers: 8 = 1 + 7, 8 = 2 + 6, 8 = 3 + 5, 8 = 4 + 4, 8 = 5 + 3, 8 = 6 + 2, 8 = 7 + 1 1 + 7 = 8, 2 + 6 = 8, 3 + 5 = 8, 4 + 4 = 8, 6 + 2 = 8, 5 + 3 = 8, 7 + 1 = 8

Question 16: Computation

Question 17: Computation

• “I’m going to show you flashcards, answer as quickly as you can.”

Test Monitor:

Allow student the time to answer, however…

Students should answer within two seconds (1 mississippi, 2 mississippi) to be considered fluent and earn points.

Score is based on number of facts answered fluently (out of five).
