Description

This learning resource focuses on solving two-step word problems, guiding students to identify key information, break down problems into manageable steps, and clearly show their work. The document outlines a structured 3-step strategy: finding the numbers and question, solving the first operation, and using that result to solve the second operation. It includes a teacher model example with Sarah's sticker problem, faded practice problems, and various worked examples for guided practice. The resource also consists of practice problems for students to attempt independently, with self-check mechanisms to ensure they are showing their work and labeling their answers appropriately.
