Maths Problem Solving Strategies BUNDLE {Newman's Prompts}
Our Math Problem Solving Student Fans {Newman's Prompts} have been created to help students solve math word problems. Solving word problems involve multiple steps which students find more challenging and difficult to do because they are focussed on getting to the ‘right’ answer, quickly; this is NOT a problem solving strategy! To help students work mathematically through their problem solving I use Dr. Ann Newmans 5 steps and have created a student frame work as a template for problem solving.
