How to teach it
- Read the whole problem, then say in your own words what it asks.
- Find the numbers that matter, and what you are looking for.
- Choose the operation, or draw a picture or a bar model.
- Solve, then check that the answer makes sense in the story.
Questions teachers ask
- Are the word problems levelled by grade?
- Yes. Each sheet uses only skills taught in its grade, as the skill map places them, so a Grade 3 sheet never needs Grade 4 content.
