Guided Multi-Step Problem Solving
引导式多步骤解题
Description
With teacher guidance, make sense of multi-step and more complex problems by planning a pathway to the solution, identifying relevant information, and choosing appropriate operations
Mastery Evidence
- When given a word problem within 20 or 100, identify the known information and what needs to be found
- Try a strategy (drawing, number line, known fact) and switch approach if the first attempt stalls
- Check the reasonableness of an answer using estimation or a different method
Assessment Prompt
If your child works out that 3 children each get 12 sweets and ends up with 5, does your child pause and say "that doesn't seem right" rather than just writing it down?
