Rigorous Primary Math Problem Solving

I'm terrible about dragging myself away from the computer at night.  I look at the clock and it's 10:30.  Next thing I know, it's 1:00 am!  I wish I knew what it was about myself that keeps me from going to bed at a decent hour.  

Well, if you are a night owl, like me, you might be thanking your lucky stars tonight!  Stay tuned!  

I just finished my latest product for TPT.  It's a packet of twelve Rigorous Primary Math Problem Solving Practice problems.   


Each of the problems is a real life situation and is illustrated to support problem solving process. They are perfect for discussion within small group instruction, especially if you use Guided Math/The Daily 5 in your classroom.   

Are you still with me, night owls?  I am so excited about this product and would like to get some feedback.  I will give a FREE copy to the first three people who leave a comment with feedback or how you would use this in your classroom.    Also, please leave your email address so I know where to send it!

  4. I love this! I have been looking for rigorous math problems for my students. I love to get the wheels turning and that academic vocab going. I would love to use these as problems of the day of use within samlsmall groups and work together to solve them.

  6. Guess I'm not the only night owl either. My husband hates it! This product looks great. This year I'm looking to tweak the guided math I began last year. Thanks for having such a great blog!

  7. After looking at the preview pictures, it looks like these problems would be great for intervention for my 3rd graders who need some help visualizing. I'd like to use these as model problems for them and then guide them toward drawing their own pictures to match word problems. Looks great!

    1. Rebecca, I was thinking the same thing. A few of the problems would be especially helpful in teaching two-step problem solving. Your copy is on it's way! Thank you for comment!
