Problem+Solving

During September we studied problem solving, while also reviewing basic facts. The emphasis in problem solving is on finding and using good strategies - not necessarily on always finding the right answer.

Here are some of the strategies we are working on:
 * Work Backwards
 * Guess and Check
 * Draw a Picture
 * Make a Chart
 * Find a Pattern
 * Solve a Simpler Problem
 * Write an Equation (for our more advanced students)
