Description
Use this journal as an opening to your daily math lessons. Reinforce problem solving using a variety of visuals. Every page has 5 sections for the student to fill out. They start with sketching the important information. I suggest sketching circles in groups of 5 and color coding them using two different colors. Then, they use the same two colors that they used for their sketch to fill-in/color the hundreds chart. The next step is the PART-PART-WHOLE MAT. If they use two different colors in their sketch and the hundreds chart, this will come easy to them. You can have them start off using the PART-PART-WHOLE MAT with only color-coded circles in each section and eventually move them in to using just numbers, or both! The fourth step is the number sentence followed by the number line. The number line comes in handy also. Use the two colors to help skip count. Draw color-coded arrows to help your students understand the word problem. I do this with my little kindergarteners, but it can be used with first graders as well. Struggling second graders can also use this.
There are a total 28 pages. One is a cover page, one is a teacher suggestion page, and the rest of the 26 pages are word problems. Each page is one entire word problem.

Thank you for taking the time to create this! Most of my students struggle with reading, I lose them in the textbook. It helps to find resources that can engage quickly without them feeling defeated before they've begun.
This was great for word problem practice!
good resource
I LOVE THE SOURCE!
thanks
this has been a great resource to use as a math warm up every day with my students. It is helping them tremendously!
thanks!
I love these word problem pages for the following reasons: 1) they include 5 strategies to build number sense within the context of word problems and 2) they include “critical thinking” questions that have improved my intervention groups overall math problem solving understanding.

CCSS1.OA.A.1
Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
CCSS1.OA.A.2
Solve word problems that call for addition of three whole numbers whose sum is less than or equal to 20, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
