Mathematize It! [Grades K-2] - Kimberly Morrow-Leong - Bog

Help students reveal the math behind the words
Solving 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.
