Looking for a fun way to reinforce problem solving skills and get your students prepared for state testing? This is it. Students will brainstorm key words for each math operation and write those words on the light bulbs provided. After that, students get to color their word problem thinking caps and glue on the bulbs. Once put together, students will then use their "thinking caps" to help them solve one of the three word problem practice sheets provided. Choose between single-step, multi-step or a mix of both. Answer keys provided!

These thinking caps also make the cutest bulletin board!
