Hands-On Problem Solving is an easy-to-use resource that helps teachers plan and implement best practices for teaching problem solving throughout the school year.

Hands-On Problem Solving for Grade 6 is divided into three sections: routine, non-routine, and extended explorations. In section one, students solve routine problems that focus on specific math concepts (number, patterns, measurement, geometry).

In this book, you will find:

  • 40 weeks worth of daily problem-solving tasks

  • a correlation chart to help plan problem-solving activities that correspond with other math activities occurring in the classroom
  • suggestions for assessment of, as, and for learning
  • built-in support for beginning readers
