Students will launch the farm stand investigation by solving a mystery order with hands-on tools, comparing strategies, and beginning to track which methods help them make sense of number stories.

Students will solve farm stand number stories within 20, compare counting, drawing, and object-based methods, choose a shared way to show unknowns with pictures and equations, and record a focused question and hypothesis about how correct math choices help the stand run well.

Students will solve farm stand number stories within 20, document one clear piece of photo-based evidence for their portfolio, compare strategies with classmates, revise from feedback, and check that their representations match each story before saving their work.

Students will analyze their farm stand portfolio evidence, compare which solving tools helped in different number stories, revise one strong example, and prepare a clear public explanation of a farm stand choice using math evidence, limits, and a next question.

Students will share their farm stand math evidence with families, school staff, and Earthplace partners, using portfolio pages and order signs to explain how they solved number stories and what strategies helped the stand run well. They will present, respond to audience questions, and complete a final reflection routine using strategy tokens and partner talk.
