The Math Doctor problem solving activities in this resource are focused on the 5th grade CCSS Operations & Algebraic Thinking standards. The activities can be used to enhance and supplement any math program. All problems are aligned with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), and they are designed to be an engaging way for students to connect the problem solving process with the real-life situation of going to a doctor’s office. As students become accustomed to the structure of the problem solving steps in the Math Doctor activities, they will be able to transfer the steps to any academic problem solving situations that they encounter. Taking the time to slow down, pause, and think about their thinking while documenting the steps in each box will encourage higher rates of student success and enjoyment with math problem solving.

• There are 3 problems for each standard in this domain.
• Each problem has 8 steps on two pages. The pages can be printed back to back to keep the activity on one piece of paper.
• An answer key is provided at the end of this resource!
