Check out these Common Core 5th Grade Math “I Can” statements I made. The
statements are set up two per page so they can be printed on standard 8 ½ x 11
sized paper and hung in your classroom. The statements are color coded by
domain.
Operations and Algebraic thinking- black and green rosette
Numbers and Operations in Base 10- black, pink, and green polka dot
Numbers and Operations- Fractions- pink, green, and white stripe
Measurement and Data- green and pink rosette
Geometry- pink and green argyle
The standards have been made a bit more
"kid friendly,” however, some of the language is intact to ensure
vocabulary rigor for the students as prescribed by the CCSS. Each
statement also contains the standard in the lower right corner in small print
for teacher reference.
I use these in my classroom as I teach lessons.
The students and I talk about the “I can statement” at the beginning of the lesson,
then revisit it at the end of the lesson. I also post them on my math wall,
which I refresh at the beginning of each new unit.
