Math Problem-Solving Strategies for Grades 3-6

This online course for teachers is designed for educators in grades 3-6 who want to help their students become critical and logical mathematical thinkers. Specific strategies are introduced that improve the way students approach math problems. Information on the problem-solving process is shared together with distinct suggestions for incorporating specific problem-solving strategies such as choosing an operation, finding a pattern, making a table, making an organized list, drawing a picture or diagram, guess and check, working backwards, and logical reasoning. Teachers will also learn effective grouping strategies for student-centered learning. The role of assessment in the problem-solving process, as well as assessment techniques specifically for problem-solving will also be provided.
