I LOVE these task cards. We have been doing a lot of them together. There are so many different topics covered in the word problems. What I'm finding is that kids don't have a very large vocabulary and lot of the topics are "foreign" to them, even though they shouldn't be. Kids just aren't introduced to many topics like they used to be. They don't watch enough movies or TV, because they are too busy on social media and watching short YouTube videos and TikToks, so taking the time to discuss what is going on in the word problems is just as important as the math. They can't do the math if they can't visualize what's going on in the story.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems.
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.
Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole-number side lengths by packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to represent the associative property of multiplication.
