Mastering Math Word Problems

Word problems can be daunting for students, young and old alike. This book teaches students to break the solving process into four simple steps. They learn that every problem has clue words to tell them which operation to use, and easy-to-follow sample problems—all related to animals—give readers the confidence to solve new problems on their own. A tips section helps encourage readers to try their best, to ask for help, and to keep practicing.
