This resource made problem solving instruction so much easier in my classroom!
- I was able to use the problems with different sized numbers for each group to meet student needs.
- I didnt have to search for new word problems when my students progressed from whole numbers to decimals to fractions.
- I could repeat problem types to help students learn how to solve similar word problems and correctly represent those situations in strip diagrams.
- I could easily motivate my students by picking the numbers and letting each of them select their own names and items to complete the problems.
