3학년 - 5학년 단어 문제 및 문제 해결을 쉽게 만듭니다

Class Description: Math Masters – Word Problems & Problem Solving

In this interactive class for grades 3-5, students will strengthen their math skills by tackling real-world word problems and developing problem-solving strategies. Through engaging activities, group discussions, and hands-on practice, students will learn how to break down complex problems, identify key information, and apply mathematical reasoning.

Students will work with multi-step word problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and decimals. They will also explore different problem-solving strategies such as drawing models, using number lines, estimating, and logical reasoning.

By the end of the class, students will gain confidence in approaching word problems with a problem-solving mindset, improving both their math skills and critical thinking abilities.
