단어 문제는 그렇게 무섭지 않아요! 레벨 3

In this course, students will work through word problems and be given useful tips in how to solve them. We will work through problems each week, looking for key words that tell us what we are solving and identifying the information necessary to solve them. These tricks include:
-Highlighting/underlining key words and crossing out unnecessary information
-Understanding what the problem is asking us through key words 
-Solving using the skills necessary to solve including percentages, fractions, decimals, multi-digit multiplication, and multi-digit division(previous knowledge is needed on these subjects).

Students will work through a series of problems with the instructor on the screen and get opportunities to interact on the screen as well to solve problems to work through the practices of solving word problems.Students will be provided the questions that will be done in class each week to highlight along with the teacher and work out problems during class. Practice material will be provided after each class for supplemental homework, but will not be checked by the teacher.

The topics covered in this class by week are as follows (you may enter any time as we will review concepts of how to solve word problems for the first few minutes of class each day):

Week 1- How to work through the 5 steps of solving a word problem including what to highlight and what not to highlight

Week 2- Continue practicing what to highlight, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division problems

Week 3- Practice eliminating unnecessary information in word problems that lead away from the answer

Week 4- Determine how to solve word problems where numbers are in both word and numerical form (close reading)

Week 5- Determine what information may be missing from a word problem (incomplete word problems)

Week 6- Determine how to solve multi-step word problems

Week 7- Solving multi-digit multiplication problems

Week 8- Solving multi-digit division problems

Week 9- Solving fraction word problems (including common and uncommon denominators)

Week 10- Solving decimal word problems (+,-,x, ÷)

Week 11- Solving percentage word problems

Week 12- Review strategies of fractions and percents and decimals 

Week 13- Solving percents with decimals in the percent

Week 14- Determine what information may be missing from a word problem (incomplete word problems)


*Please note that these questions are designed for percentage, fraction, decimal, multiplication, and division practice. While some questions may seem easy in the first few weeks, the complexity increases each week as new skills are mastered and more challenging questions are integrated. Questions will be a mix of these types of problems each week.

**Please note students need background knowledge in multiplication, division, percent, fractions, and decimals in this class.
