For the past few days in Math Class, we have been discussing word problems. We have talked about how you need to carefully read each problem, looking for those key words that helps us know what to do in order to solve. We have to look at all the numbers in the problems and decide what information is needed and what information is not needed. Then we have to decide what strategy we need to use to solve the problem:- Guess and Check
- Draw a picture
- Make a chart
- Work Backwards
- Multi-Step
This week we have solved problems in groups, as well as for homework and classwork. Some problems have been open-ended. Some problems have been multiple-choice.
Now I would like to know....what worries you about word problems? Let me know, so I can know better how to help you in class.

What worries me about word problems
is that sometimes the problems have unesesary information. Then when I get my test grades I end up throwing out importent information and useing the UNESESARY information.
Sincerly,
