Episode 29
Word problems can be a challenge to teach. Perhaps, it is because we are trying to teach students to problem-solve: think about, observe, investigate, and reason through situations. Which, in my opinion, is quite the task! In today’s episode, Noelle discusses why problem-solving is so important for our students and provides some strategies to get students thinking.
