![]() ![]() The last two blank pages were added for solving the equations. You can see all the squares and how we wrote them. It told them the equations can be developed after they examine the picture carefully. ![]() In the past, my students were taught quick solutions and short cuts without much thought behind our work.Īs we continued, they discovered that a picture was the best way to solve. As CCSS starts to take root, I predict that students will become stronger problem solvers because we are teaching them how to pay attention to details and focusing on language. My students are really weak at paying attention to what needs to be solved. I told them that it was important to note WHICH key word was listed to keep them focused on what should be solved. Some students wondered if they could just write down the equations. I told them to underline those key words and write them down in the "S" part of KWS an "A" or a "P" to remind them if they are solving for area or perimeter. We began solving the word problems using a familiar strategy they have been using. Looking for the "magic" key word that shows us if it is perimeter or area. I emphasized the importance of really focusing on the question first. We discussed in detail the perimeter, the importance of drawing out the problem, equations and labeling. I opened the first page of the SB file and had students take detailed notes.* We went through the file page by page and practiced each word problem together.
