EDITABLE Word Problem Strategies Organizer
- PPTX
What educators are saying
Description
The Word Problem Strategies Organizer is designed to explicitly model 10 word problem strategies. The 10 word problem strategies include: guess and check, solve a simpler problem, work backwards, elimination, look for a pattern, write an expression/ equation/ inequality, draw a picture/model, make a table, use logical reasoning, use a formula.
One problem is included for each strategy (geared towards middle school math), as you discuss whole group or in small groups how to apply the strategy and how the strategy helped to solve the problem. Some problems may have multiple strategies that can be utilized and this can be discussed as well.
This is a great reference tool for students to refer to as they tackle future word problems throughout the year.
An answer key is also included.
**Update: Slides 14-21 are editable. Simply click enable editing and insert a text box to edit. The last three slides are blank so you can include more word problem strategies if desired. The font used in this product is RYsimplesolver from @iteachalgebra.**
