Collaboration
|
- I can collaborate with my group to share ideas for the hangout design and follow team roles with reminders (like gamer, reader, skater, artist, quiet user)
- I can communicate my suggestions respectfully and complete my part of the shared floor plan or budget with minimal conflict.
|
- I can collaborate to co-design a hangout that meets multiple users’ needs by actively listening to peers and using our role cards to test ideas
- I can help track decisions and revise the plan after group feedback, using clear math-based reasons for changes (e.g., space, circulation, or cost).
|
- I can take a leadership role in collaboration by organizing how our team uses tools and structures (measuring tapes, scale drawings, and 3D nets) to refine the design
- I can facilitate shared decision-making, resolve disagreements by referring to real constraints and safety/cost trade-offs, and revise our floor plan, budget, or model with teammates’ input.
|
- I can independently drive high-quality collaboration by aligning the team’s work to clear goals (welcome, usefulness, safety, and budget) and ensuring everyone’s voice is represented
- I can critique and improve our math models and nets with teammates, justify trade-offs using math vocabulary, and coordinate revisions so our final proposal is coherent, realistic, and defended confidently to an authentic audience.

Critical Thinking & Problem Solving
|
- I can choose measurements and simple math steps (like area/perimeter and basic scaling) to start a hangout plan, and I can explain the main reason for my first choices using appropriate math vocabulary (e.g., length, area, budget).
|
- I can build a model of my hangout by using tools strategically (tape/grid/scale drawings or digital tools) and structure (units, grids, and consistent scale) to check my plan fits the 20-by-30-foot space and stays within the budget cap.
|
- I can revise my design when new constraints appear (like safety/walkway/weather) by modeling with mathematics and updating calculations (area, perimeter, and budgeting with decimals/estimates), and I can justify my trade-offs clearly with evidence.
|
- I can improve my 3D design using nets and surface-area thinking (rectangles/triangles) when it affects real features, and I can construct viable arguments by critiquing and defending my reasoning, responding to feedback, and refining both the math and the design for multiple user needs and safety.

Effective Communication
|
- I can share my design idea clearly using math vocabulary (like area, perimeter, scale, and budget words) and I can explain it in a short part of our team’s presentation with help from prompts.
|
- I can communicate my plan confidently by connecting each design choice to measurements and costs (using decimals and estimates when needed) and I can answer basic questions during share-out by referring to my labeled floor plan or budget.
|
- I can present my design as a complete, well-structured explanation by using models (3D nets or mockup, labeled zones, and circulation) to show how it fits the 20-by-30-foot space and meets safety/facilities constraints, and I can explain one clear trade-off with evidence from my math work.
|
- I can defend my design persuasively by constructing viable arguments, critiquing or responding to others’ reasoning respectfully, and revising my communication based on feedback from peers/community (including the facilities update); I can clearly state my chosen reason, trade-off, and remaining question using accurate math details.

Content Expertise
|
- I can use appropriate measurement and tools (tape measure, ruler, grid paper, price lists) to make a first-draft 20-by-30-foot layout with labeled dimensions, area/perimeter calculations, and a simple budget that stays within the initial constraints.
|
- I can model my hangout design by using scale structure (consistent scale and accurate proportions) to revise my floor plan, explain how each labeled space contributes to area/perimeter needs, and compute costs using decimals and estimation with fewer errors.
|
- I can create and refine a complete math-based proposal by connecting my floor plan and budget to the real constraints (like facilities updates), showing clear trade-offs in calculations and using math vocabulary to justify why my design is realistic and useful for different users.
|
- I can produce an accurate, defensible 3D representation by creating labeled nets (made of rectangles/triangles) and using them to find surface area, then I can revise both the plan and model based on critique so my final proposal meets safety, welcome, and budget goals.

Academic Mindset
|
- I can use my feedback and the design constraints (like budget and safety updates) to make small improvements to my hangout plan, and I can explain what I changed and why in my math portfolio.
|
- I can set a specific goal for how I’ll improve my scale floor plan, budget, or 3D net/model, and I can choose and use math tools (like rulers, graph paper, or digital tools) in a way that helps my math stay accurate and consistent.
|
- I can revise my design after critique by testing ideas against the real-world rules (space limits, circulation/safety, and costs), and I can describe the trade-offs I made and how my updates strengthen usefulness and welcome for different users.
|
- I can independently monitor my progress toward the final proposal by using patterns/structure in my calculations (area/perimeter/surface area and budgets) to catch errors, justify decisions with math evidence, and explain how my final model meets constraints and serves students well.
