Description
Problem solving is one of the most challenging skills we teach in math. Research shows the best way to help students learn to tackle multi-step word problems is through short, purposeful daily practice. These June-themed story problems for 6th Grade are fully digital and can be shared with students via Google Slides or in Google Classroom or projected to complete as a class.
Designed to take less than 15 minutes per day - including giving students time to solve, discuss, and review - each month's problems include single-step, multi-step and word problems with extra information. This helps build students' capacity for critical thinking and mathematical problem-solving skills.
The problems increase in complexity across the months. This is purposefully done to help prepare your sixth-grade students for the types of problems they may see on state tests and as they progress through middle & high school math classes.
