I am a former elementary school teacher who has also taught 6th and 7th grade math.
As an education consultant, as well as a teacher, I have seen students from grade 1-8 struggle with word problems.
Many programs used in school simply don't give teachers enough word problems for students to work on. In order to gain competence and confidence with word problems, students need lots of practice and support!
This product contains 96 word problems for 3rd grade. All 96 problems correspond to Operations and Algebraic Thinking standards. Each standard has 4 easy problems, 4 medium problems and 4 challenging word problems.
The tasks in this packet are meant to be teacher-led in the context of small group instruction. The teacher will lead the students in both the tasks, and the discussion that follows. Next, the students will work first in pairs, and then independently on the word problems related to the guided task.
This product contains 24 word problems for 3rd grade. All problems are from the Operations & Algebraic Thinking standards. For each standard, I offer 4 easy problems, 4 medium-level and 4 difficult problems. Also included in "96 Word Problems for 3rd Grade"
