Build a Zoo Project Based Learning – 5th Grade Math PBL

⭐ Build a Zoo is a project-based learning task that involves using 5th grade math standards to solve problems related to building and maintaining a zoo. This resource contains a standards-based unit in both printable PDF and Google Slides versions – so it’s the perfect activity to increase engagement and interest in the classroom or distance learning. Students follow instructions on building a zoo by choosing the animals for their zoo, creating a blueprint, calculating length and width, interpreting data, and more. Additional “challenge activities” engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.

 

⭐ This project-based learning task involves using the following CCSS math standards to solve problems related to building a zoo.

  • 5.NBT.A.3 Read, write and compare decimals to thousandths.
  • 5.NBT.B.5 Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
  • 5.NBT.B.6 Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors.
  • 5.NBT.B.7 Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to the hundredth.
  • 5.NF.A.1 Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators.
  • 5.MD.A.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system.
  • 5.MD.B.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit.
