Description
Our Solving Word Problems lesson plan develops math problem-solving strategies for young students. This interactive lesson equips students to identify and define keywords and use pictures or diagrams for math problem solving (addition and subtraction). Students are asked to work collaboratively, in pairs, to compose word problems that incorporate pictures or diagrams and exchange problems with other groups to solve. Students are also asked to individually complete practice problems in order to demonstrate their understanding of the lesson.
At the end of the lesson, students will be able to identify and define keywords and use pictures or diagrams for math problem solving (addition and subtraction).
