I don't know about you but teaching word problems has always stressed me out.
And then it hit me while I was doing one of those "Mad Libs" with my son.
Why not make some word problems that I can fill in with the students names, numbers and whatever "thing" it is we are going to count?
So I did a set of 8 smartboards with word problem "frames" ( 2 additon, 2 subtraction, 2 comparison, 1 classification, and 1 part-part whole)
Reasons I'm excited to start this with my class...
Now I can use them each year because I write their little name in the blank (and oh, how they love that)
I can make them go along with any theme.
I can differentiate them to use with ALL my many levels of kiddos.
Oh, yeah and I can sneak a mini Parts of Speech lesson during math time.
It's $2.00
