Description
This is an easy-to-use resource to walk students through solving word problems step-by-step. Each word problem slide has a set of unique questions to walk students through understanding, modeling and solving problems. The steps are animated and sequential to take the stress off of you as the teacher as you walk students through solving word problems.
This resource is designed to teach your students the questions they need to ask themselves to truly understand word problems. While learning new word problem thought patterns, students will also learn to create strip diagrams to represent each word problem type.
This resource needs PowerPoint and Windows Media Player to run. Windows Media Player comes installed with all versions of Windows except Windows N.
