Description
This slide deck includes three interactive powerpoint lessons (38 slides & approx. 90 minutes of instruction). All slide decks are editable, allowing you to customize them to meet the specific needs of your students!
The word problem expert series is designed to teach students to identify two possible actions in story problems with equal groups: combining (multiplication) and separating (division).
Students then use a problem solving protocol (PDF template included) to solve each word problem.
How to implement these lessons in your classroom:
- Instead of having worksheets to accompany these lessons, questions and checks for understanding have been incorporated throughout each presentation. Have students respond to these questions with expo markers on their mini whiteboards so you can quickly glance around the room and see who is understanding the content and who needs more support in a small group.
- Incorporate your students’ names and interests in each lesson. This is one of the main reasons why I chose to make each slide deck editable. It was one of the best feelings in the world watching my students’ faces light up with excitement when they realized the math problems were about them!
- Project the lessons on the whiteboard so that you can use an expo marker to show any additional work/demonstrations directly on the slides.
