Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.

Access and help

Read or sign the exact source and prompts neutrally, enlarge them, or scribe the learner’s chosen words. A figure, operation, regrouping, equation role or check supplied by an adult is mathematical help and is recorded as such. Show, draw, type, sign or use usual communication. One component can be enough; pause/pass/finish are choices. Four own spaces are genuinely empty. Models, criteria and next lessons stay on separate staff pages.

Components

Criterion

148+153 dollars is total cost compared with 300 dollars; roles and units agree.

Complete different guided source

A pretend AUD budget $300 has costs $147 and $128.

Complete new source

A fictional AUD budget $250 has invented costs $126 and $98.

Complete own invitation

An invented AUD budget $400 has costs $186 and $195.

Entry and teach

Teach dollars as a single unit; no cents or real spending needed.

Guided instruction

275 cost, 25 left. Invite each relationship before the answer; teach missing facts and name help.

Id

NEXT21

Materials

Broad paper/empty bar or line/place-value headings as useful; usual communication; no actual stock/handling/purchase.

Observe and follow up

Receive one available own relationship before staff possibility. If it matches criterion, offer another small new context later; this is not automatic mastery. If not, return to the entry relationship and fade one hint. Record the actual mathematical help. If access/time is not available, change access or sitting rather than marking wrong.

Relationship to check

Teach the observed missing relationship in a new ordinary domain; not an answer repetition or further held item.

Session sequence

  1. Read the new source and name units/wanted quantity. Teach dollars as a single unit; no cents or real spending needed.

  2. Model on separate adult paper. Cost 126+98=224 dollars; compare 224≤250.

  3. Guide a different complete source. A pretend AUD budget $300 has costs $147 and $128. 275 cost, 25 left.

  4. Receive one own attempt. An invented AUD budget $400 has costs $186 and $195. Staff reference only: 381 cost, 19 left.

  5. Compare available work with: Additive cost model and budget constraint have consistent dollar roles. Choose one follow-up offer; never infer independence from a copied model.

What to look for

Additive cost model and budget constraint have consistent dollar roles.

Staff own possibility

381 cost, 19 left.

Teacher model

Cost 126+98=224 dollars; compare 224≤250.

Timing

An adjustable 10–20 minute ordinary lesson, unpiloted; split/stop after one useful part.

Title

Whole-dollar model

Own initial value

Prompt

Write a model for the combined cost and its comparison with the budget.

After own work: adult practice possibility

Cost $148+$153; compare with $300. No pack multiplication or cents are supplied.

Criterion

About $150+$150≈$300 is a scale check, not the exact cost or an affordability proof.

Complete own invitation

An invented AUD plan costs $298 and $207, budget $500.

Entry and teach

Place 176 between 170/180 and 158 between 150/160; round nearest ten.

Guided instruction

About 250+140≈390; exact 385, 5 left. Invite each relationship before the answer; teach missing facts and name help.

Session sequence

  1. Read the new source and name units/wanted quantity. Place 176 between 170/180 and 158 between 150/160; round nearest ten.

  2. Model on separate adult paper. About 180+160≈340 checks scale; exact 334 must settle a fit.

  3. Guide a different complete source. A pretend AUD plan costs $247 and $138, budget $390. About 250+140≈390; exact 385, 5 left.

  4. Receive one own attempt. An invented AUD plan costs $298 and $207, budget $500. Staff reference only: About 300+210≈510; exact 505, 5 over.

  5. Compare available work with: Nearest-ten values and approximation limitation are stated, not called exact cost. Choose one follow-up offer; never infer independence from a copied model.

What to look for

Nearest-ten values and approximation limitation are stated, not called exact cost.

Staff own possibility

About 300+210≈510; exact 505, 5 over.

Teacher model

About 180+160≈340 checks scale; exact 334 must settle a fit.

Timing

An adjustable 10–20 minute ordinary lesson, unpiloted; split/stop after one useful part.

Title

A purpose for rounding

Own initial value

Prompt

Give a nearest-ten estimate and state its purpose.

After own work: adult practice possibility

Using nearest-ten rounding gives about $300. This estimate cannot settle a tight decision against $300.

Criterion

Exact $301 exceeds $300 by $1, so this stated plan does not fit.

Relationship to check

Session sequence

  1. Read the new source and name units/wanted quantity. Check why exact comparison is necessary near threshold.

  2. Model on separate adult paper. 201 cost, 1 over; an estimate 100+100≈200 cannot prove the plan fits.

  3. Guide a different complete source. A pretend AUD budget $350 costs $176 and $175. 351 cost, 1 over.

  4. Receive one own attempt. An invented AUD budget $500 costs $248 and $251. Staff reference only: 499 cost, 1 left.

  5. Compare available work with: Exact cost and money-left/excess direction support affordability in the model. Choose one follow-up offer; never infer independence from a copied model.

What to look for

Exact cost and money-left/excess direction support affordability in the model.

Staff own possibility

499 cost, 1 left.

Teacher model

201 cost, 1 over; an estimate 100+100≈200 cannot prove the plan fits.

Timing

An adjustable 10–20 minute ordinary lesson, unpiloted; split/stop after one useful part.

Title

One over matters

Own initial value

Prompt

Calculate exactly and decide whether it fits. State the money left or excess.

After own work: adult practice possibility

148+153=301; $301−$300=$1 over. Money left is not positive $1.

Criterion

A valid check supports 301; approximate 300 missed the 1-dollar excess.

Timing

Title

Check a budget result

Own initial value

Prompt

Give an exact check and explain why the rough estimate alone was insufficient here.

After own work: adult practice possibility

301−148=153. The estimate equalled budget but exact cost is 1 more; a revised plan would need its own conditions/check.

Eligibility

After additive financial modelling, estimate limits and exact comparisons have been taught, e.g. Day 59. Whole-dollar interpretation is checked; if unfamiliar, teach equivalent card-count target separately.

First later limit

First/later are opportunity labels, not fixed order, matches, calibrated difficulty or learning gain. If source/answer exposed, record that rather than claim unseen.

Complete neutral source

A fictional Australian-dollar budget is $300. Two invented whole-dollar costs are $148 and $153. There are no other costs in this model. These are not current prices, personal finances or a purchase invitation.

Own page

Four labelled true empty text areas with literal blank initial values; kept draft not required for judgement; staff information behind separate link, not autofilled.

Source disclosure

Full neutral whole source is initially closed native same-page details on own response page; reading it never navigates away or loses typed work. No worked/criterion/next source inside its child disclosure. Staff index is separate.
