Mathematize It! [Grades 3-5] - Sara Delano Moore - Bog

Help students reveal the math behind the wordsSolving problems is about more than computation. Students must understand the mathematics of a situation to know what computation will lead to an appropriate solution. Mathematize It! shares a reasoning approach that helps students dig into the problem to uncover the underlying mathematics, deeply consider the problem’s context, and employ strong operation sense to solve it. This user-friendly resource for Grades 3–5 • Offers a systematic mathematizing process for solving word problems• Provides specific examples for all four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) with whole numbers, fractions, and decimals• Demonstrates the use of concrete manipulatives to model problems with dozens of short videos
