- Find Out--what do you want to know? what is the question? what information do we know?
- Choose a Strategy--what strategy works for this type of problem?
- Solve--show your work so we can see your thinking!
- Look Back--does the solution make sense? did we use the information correctly?
- Change Plus--something was added
- Change Minus--something was subtracted
- Collection--there is not a change in the number of items, but the items all belong in a group
- Comparision--comparing items between two people
- Not Enough Information--data is missing, so we need to add the correct information
- Too Much Information--cross out what is not needed
Happy problem solving!
