Mathematical Problem Solving

(current language but under revision)

 

Select, apply, and translate among mathematical representations to solve problems.

 

Apply and adapt a variety of appropriate strategies to solve problems.

 

Monitor and reflect on the process of mathematical problem solving.

 

Communicate mathematical thinking coherently and clearly; use the language of mathematics to express mathematical ideas  precisely.

 

Accurately solve problems that arise in mathematics and other contexts.

CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING

Interpret the concepts of a problem-solving task and translate them into             mathematics.

PROCESSES AND STRATEGIES

Choose strategies that can work and then carry out the strategies chosen.

VERIFICATION

Produce identifiable evidence of a second look at the concepts/strategies/            calculations to defend a solution.

COMMUNICATION

Use pictures, symbols, and/or vocabulary to convey the path to the identified             solution.

ACCURACY

Accurately solve problems using mathematics.

continuously through the year.

 

Classroom Resources:

(S.F.) Spiral Review

 

(S.F.) Assessment Sourcebook: Diagnosing Readiness for Grade 4 pg.

 

Understand numbers, ways of representing numbers, relationships among numbers, and number systems.

 

Compute fluently and make reasonable estimates.

 

Understand meanings of operations and how they relate to one another.

 

 

Understand patterns, relations, and functions.

 

Represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols

 

Read, write, order, model, and compare whole numbers to one million, common fractions, and decimals to hundredths.

 

Identify the place value and actual value of digits in a number to one million.

 

Read, write, order, model, and compare decimals to hundredths.

Locate decimals on a number line.

 

Model, recognize, and generate equivalent forms of decimals to

 hundredths.

 

Add and subtract decimals to hundredths, including money

amounts.

 

Identify the most efficient operation (add or subtract) for solving a problem..

 

Select and use an appropriate estimation strategy (overestimate, underestimate, range of estimates) based on the problem situation when computing with whole numbers or money amounts.

 

Use place value concepts such as rounding to nearest 10, 100,

and 1000 to estimate and check reasonableness of answers.

 

Use inverse operations (addition and subtraction) to solve

problems and check solutions involving calculations with

whole numbers.

 

Supply a missing element in or determine a rule that extends

number patterns involving addition or subtraction of decimals.

Select operational and relational symbols to make a number                                        sentence true (e.g., 4 _ 3 = 12, 5 + 17 _ 25).

 

Represent and solve open sentences or problems involving

numeric equations or inequalities (e.g., 3 + ? = 4,  2 + 1 > ?;

4 < 2 + ?).
