Max Modeling Mouse is one of the math strategy animals in Problem-Solving Pond series. In modeling, students use manipulatives, counters or drawings to model, or represent the mathematics of the story problem. Modeling is a critical skill because the visual representation allows students to see the situation presented in the problem. Max uses a special rhyming poem to teach the students how to use the modeling strategy to solve a variety of story or word problems. Max's unit includes:

--Introduction to Problem-Solving Pond Unit
