This is a new station for practicing problem solving.This set focuses on multiplying decimals and includes four different Poly Problem Solvers, each with eight problems. Students solve the problem and match the solution to it. I suggest using hook and loop tabs. This way, students can actually stick the solutions next to the equations. There are two extra answers in each case, so that student must solve the last problem rather than use process of elimination.

My station rotations are in groups of four. I like to use these as a partner station. That is, when the group gets to this station, they work in partner pairs on two different Poly Problem Solvers. They can switch if both partner pairs finish with time left at the station. You could also have the students work individually or in groups of four. I laminate the included student directions to keep at the station. There is also a sheet for students to show their work.

I have included two versions. In the first, the problems and answers are in corresponding colors. That way, if a student drops an answer, you know which Poly Problem Solver it belongs to. In the second version, all the problems and answers are in black. Here you can print them on four different colored sheets of paper. I prefer cardstock for the weight and feel, but plain copy paper works, too.

I am working on Poly Problem Solvers for many other problem solving skills. Please check back for more!!!
