Is It True? Error Analysis Format:

This product includes 20 individual tasks to practice order of operations. Each task includes space to decide (yes/no) whether or not it has been evaluated correctly and then space to provide a justification for their choice.

The first 10 tasks include steps worked out for students to see and consider, along with the solution.

The last 10 tasks only include a solution given, so students have to consider how it might have been evaluated and whether or not the solution is true.

Some tasks only include basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication & division) and some also include parentheses and exponents.

Choose to assign tasks that fit your students grade and ability level.

A handful of the tasks are evaluated correctly, so that students don’t always assume it must be wrong and truly take time to analyze the problem.

In addition, a couple of the problems lend themselves to additional discussion, which is included in the teaching tips.

*NOTE: The digital and printable tasks are the same 20 tasks, just in different formats for your convenience.*
