On Friday we practise solving word problems.
We look at questions like: "Cooper bought 7 marbles to school. Cayl gave him 3 and then Ben gave him 4 more. How many does he have altogether?"
At the moment we are modelling to the students how we can work this out by drawing pictures or using equipment.
Once the children are familiar with what is expected of them they will start working on these problems in small groups.
