Description
Are you looking for engaging resources to conquer math word problems using the 3 Reads Protocol? This growing year long bundle is packed full of addition and subtraction word problems at three differentiated levels. It is the ultimate resource designed exclusively for elementary math teachers who aim to cultivate exceptional problem-solving skills in their students. This comprehensive packet combines the power of real world scenario problems, differentiated graphic organizers, a 3 Reads Protocol poster, and a student answer sheet, creating a complete toolkit to conquer math word problems with ease.
Each theme has 5 word problems with additional free word problems included for some months as well. There are 60+ word problem scenarios at 3 differentiated levels to use with the 3 reads protocol.
Themes:
- August: Farm Theme
- September: Back to School
- October: Halloween
- November: Thanksgiving
- December: Christmas
- January: Snow
- February: Valentine's Day
- March: St. Patrick's Day
- April: Easter
- May: Cinco de Mayo
- June: Ice Cream Theme
- July: 4th of July/Patriotic
Resources Included:
- 4 Three Reads Protocol Graphic Organizers (with 2 versions for each one including an option for graphics matching the graphics on the word problems for each step)
- Three Reads Protocol Poster
- Three Reads Student Answer Sheet
- 60+ Real World Scenario Problems
- Problems are presented in task card (4 cards to a page) and powerpoint presentation (13.33 in x 7.5 in).
- A variety of problem types which may include all problem types. There are more compare difference unknown and part part whole problem types represented because the scenarios are designed to have multiple possible questions for each scenario.
- Each Theme includes 5 Real World Scenarios at 3 Differentiated Levels
- Level One is mostly adding and subtracting within 10.
- Level Two is mostly adding and subtracting within 20.
- Level Three is mostly adding and subtracting within 30.
- Optional challenge and extension questions are not always within the range for each level.
- Graphics are included for each step of the 3 Reads Process.
3 Reads Protocol
- 1st Read (Represented by a storybook graphic): Read the story without specific numbers to focus on the details of the story and to answer the question: What is the story about?
- 2nd Read (Represented by a numbers graphic): Read the story with the numbers to focus on answering the questions: What are the numbers in the story? How are they related? What do they mean?
- 3rd Read (Represented by a question marks graphic): Read the story a third time and focus on answering the question: What mathematical questions can we ask about the story?
- After going through all the steps of the 3 Read Protocol, you can determine if you would like to answer the questions your class or group came up with or if you would like to use the questions provided.
- There are at least 2 questions provided for each problem and then a challenge and/or extension question.
