Strong problem solvers are able to decontextualize and "find the math" in word problems. They do this by assessing the problem and representing it visually . . . not by circling, underlining, or highlighting key words. This workshop will introduce teachers to "Read It–Write It–Picture It," the last problem-solving method students will need to learn.
Presentation Format: 3-5 Session
