Review tiers 1–10

Checklists are parent-judged.
Written items: verify against practice set patterns.
Standard text: Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.

Practice test scoring

| Tier | Pass guidance | | --- | --- | | 1–3 | Most oral tasks smooth; majority of written correct | | 4–6 | 7/10+ total with clear understanding | | 7–8 | 9/12+ with explanations | | 9–10 | Near-perfect; ready to move on |
