Using Visual Grids for Solving Math Word Problems was written to help teach children to pare down a story problem to its most essential information. Only when a student can see and understand what the most essential elements of a problem are, can he or she begin to solve the problem correctly and without frustration. The lessons in this book are very helpful when introducing children to the process of solving math word problems. Each lesson visually demonstrates to the student the differences in the respective particular word problem. Students also become familiar with the process of looking for the key words in word problems. This is fundamental in determining which math function must be completed in order to solve the problem correctly. By laying this foundation in the early grades, students learn problem solving skills that will help them throughout their education. Grades 1-3. Addition & Subtraction: Sums to 99/No Regrouping.
