GACE Elementary Education: Practice Test II
(Mathematics, science, and extracurriculars)
Solved 100% 2024
Additive Identity Property - ANS-The sum of any number and zero is the number
a+0=a
algorithm - ANS-A step-by-step procedure for solving a problem, especially by a
computer.
Area - ANS-The number of square units required to cover a surface
Associative Property of Addition - ANS-Changing the grouping of three or more
addends does not change the sum
(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)
Associative property of multiplication - ANS-Changing the grouping of three or more
factors does not change the product
(ab)c=a(bc)
Blood pressure - ANS-the pressure that is exerted by the blood against the walls of
blood vessels
Blood sugar - ANS-the concentration of glucose in the blood.
Cardinal numbers - ANS-The counting numbers; 1, 2, 3, 4...
Cardinality principle - ANS-the last count word in the counting sequence represents the
total number of items in the collection
Chemical change - ANS-A change in matter that produces one or more new substances
*Examples:* Rotting banana, burning wood
Cholesterol - ANS-A type of fat made by the body from saturated fat; a minor part of fat
in foods.
Circumference - ANS-The distance around a circle
, Commutative property - ANS-The order in which numbers are added or multiplied does
not change the sum or product.
a+b = b+a
axb=bxa
Compatible numbers - ANS-numbers that are easy to compute mentally
Complimentary colors - ANS-Colors opposite on the color wheel
*example:* red and green
Condensation - ANS-Gas to liquid
Cooperative learning - ANS-Approach to instruction in which students work with a small
group of peers to achieve a common goal and help one another learn
Density - ANS-Mass per unit volume
mass/volume
Destructive force - ANS-Any natural process that tears down or wears away Earth's
surface
*example:* cave formation through weathering
Discrepant event - ANS-An event that has an unexpected conclusion
Distributive property - ANS-a number outside the parenthesis can be multiplied to each
term within the parenthesis
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Dramatic writing - ANS-dialogue
Form and function - ANS-How something works is related to its structure
"form fits function"
*Examples:* bird's wing which has hollow bones and feathers; giraffe's neck to reach
leaves in tall trees
Forward roll - ANS-1. Squat
2. Hands on mat, elbows inside
3. Chin to chest
