Description
Help students move beyond guessing keywords and begin thinking like mathematicians with this engaging Interactive Google Slides™ resource!
Using research-based Schema-Based Instruction, students learn to recognize the underlying structure of additive word problems by identifying whether a problem is a Combine, Compare, or Change schema. Through explicit instruction, visual models, worked examples, guided practice, and independent practice, students build conceptual understanding rather than memorizing tricks.
Students complete activities by typing directly into text boxes, making this a perfect no-prep digital resource for intervention, small groups, tutoring, distance learning, or whole-class instruction.
What's IncludedInteractive Google Slides™
Students type directly into provided text boxes throughout the lesson.
Word Problem "Attack" Strategy
Teach students a systematic approach for analyzing and solving word problems.
Explicit Instruction
Students learn each additive schema through:
- Clear explanations
- Visual models
- Worked examples
Guided & Independent Practice
Practice includes all three additive schemas:
✔ Combine
✔ Compare
✔ Change
Students apply what they've learned using structured practice problems designed to reinforce conceptual understanding.
