Do you wish your students would provide more complete responses when solving word problems?

I know that I can't stand getting a single number as the answer to a word problem. I want to be able to read a response and be able to tell what the question was, what the answer is, and how they figured it out.

This template has been a lifesaver! Seriously. It can be used with any problem, and students know exactly what is expected of them to create a complete, quality response.

I included three versions of the template, which can be used to scaffold responses. I I suggest beginning with the most structure, and slowly decreasing the amount of direction they are given.

For each of the three versions, there is the option of including a rubric, making your grading even easier!
