Math Problem of the Week
Problem Solving is the cornerstone of a successful math program. The following 25 problems can be used individually or with groups. A problem solving rubric is included to help assess a student's ability to communicate their understanding and mathematical processes. I have used these problems successfully in my 20 years as a middle school teacher, and I have grouped them according to strand. Enjoy!

Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Unlike Denominators: step-by-step
This is a short packet that guides students through the process of adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators. It includes six problems, broken down into individual steps with simple instructions.
For best results, print two-sided, and double-staple along the left edge. This allows students to open the packet like a book and see all the steps for solving one problem right in front of them, without having to flip pages.

Multiplying Using the Distributive Property
This Power Point walks through using the distributive property to solve 2 digit by 1 digit and 3 digit by 1 digit multiplication problems. With each mouse click, the next step in the process is revealed. There are 4 slides which demonstrate the process using arrays. The four examples with arrays are all 2 digits multiplied by 1 digit. There are four more 2 digit by 1 digit slides that illustrate the process without an array. There are three slides that illustrate 3 digit by 1 digit problems. Alo

Module 3 Application Problems Lessons 7-11
Application problems are included throughout the modules to work on applying strategies and reinforce skills through problem solving. We have taken the "RDW," "read, draw, write," process and put it onto paper so that students have a hard copy and something hands on to use to figure their problems out, rather than just a whole group problem to be completed on the board or smartboard. These problems work great for individual, partner, and small group!

⭐ ONE, NONE, OR INFINITE SOLUTIONS | 4-IN-1 SKILL SHEET™ FOR 8TH GRADE MATH ⭐ Students use the multi-step solving process they already know — but now they read the result instead of just writing the answer. Variables cancel to a TRUE statement (6 = 6) → infinitely many solutions. Variables cancel to a FALSE statement (3 = 7) → no solution. A value emerges → one solution.

Math Vocabulary Handout
This is an handout that can be given to students to provide them with a vocabulary list of math terms that can be used when describing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. This handout is particularly helpful when solving word problems or giving written explanations to problems because it allows students to find the words needed to describe their thought process.
