Have you noticed that there are more and more word problems in standardized tests? Are you wondering where and how to start to teach students and children word problems? According to my limited knowledge, I have not so far found any systematic set of books that teaches word problems solving skills except for this one: word problems-detailed explanations of reasoning and solving strategies. There are altogether 12 volumes in this set of books: teaching the skills from using addition to using division to solve whole number and fraction word problems. When you finish the set of books, you are going to find that you have set yourself a solid foundation for fundamental word problem solving skills. This will help greatly with your study of algebra, of physics and of science in the future. This is the workbook of 3rd volume of all the 12 volumes. This book is for 2nd graders or 3rd graders depending on your students. The techniques on using the 3 elements formulas to find the total amount in all the groups, the number of groups and the amount in each group are taught in this volume. The volume also teaches using the terms "times" and "as......as......" to solve for one of the 3 elements. The techniques on addition and subtraction (for numbers 0 to 100) are reinforced in this volume. There is more in the volume than what is mentioned. Detailed explanations of the reasoning and solving strategies for each and every problem in Volume 3 are given in Volume 3 Answer Key.
