FREE MATH LESSON - “CUBES Problem Solving Strategies FREEBIE”

by EduTunes With Miss Jenny
Kindergarten - 12th Grade

This "CUBES" Problem Solving Strategies FREEBIE gives children tools for solving math problems. The posters support the first K-12 Common Core Standard for Mathematical Practice, which states, "Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them."

I've included three versions of the poster with changes to the meaning of the "E" (see below). All three versions are in full-color and black-and-white. CUBES is a mneumonic for:

C: Circle the numbers.

U: Underline the question.

B: Box the key words.

E: Explain your thinking/eliminate unnecessary information/evaluate next steps.

S: Solve the problem.

Rather than seeing CUBES as a "formula," I tell my students that it is a helpful way to break down problems. Math requires a tremendous amount of cognitive load--to the point that many students feel too overwhelmed to even try. This simple system is a great way to make solving difficult math problems accessible to those students. I sincerely hope this work makes a difference in your classroom. Thanks so much for trying my materials!

Sincerely,

Jenny Kramer

"Miss Jenny"

FREE MATH LESSON - “Basic Operations Game || Review Adding Subtracting Multiplying Dividing”

by Rebekah is Virtually Real
Pre-Kindergarten - 7th Grade

Great for review or to improve fluency with basic operations any time.

Print and laminate the equations (four blank equations on each page, three pages of equations).

Students pick a number between 1-48 (if using the number page included) and solve by filling in the equation with a dry erase marker. Come up with at least four different solutions.

With repeated play this really drives home order of operations, the reality that there is more than one way to solve, and provides extension opportunities if students want to challenge themselves by using fractions/decimals/percents or negative numbers.

Simple to make and fun for a range of ages and skills.
