Clarify Their Own Thinking
Consider and Test Other Strategies
Investigate and Apply Math Relationships
Develop Multiple Strategies and Choose the Most
Efficient One
Number Talks
Strings- Give students a series of smaller problems that
build on each other to teach a particular strategy.
Focused Problem- 1 bigger problem that allows
students to explore how to solve the problem in
different ways- develops flexible and efficient thinking.
5-15 minutes
Think-Pair-Share
Wait Time- Emphasize Thinking Over Speed
Wait until most students feel they have at least one strategy
Students who solve problem quickly are encouraged to solve
problems in more than 1 way
Accept All Ideas
Different Strategies develop flexible thinking and build on
understanding of number relationships
Wrong answers lead discussion to focus on important strategies
and clear up common misconceptions
Sample Prompts
I agree with ____________ because__________.
I disagree with__________ because__________.
I do not understand____________. Can you please
explain again?
Why did you decide to_________________?
Getting Started
Start with smaller problems
Offer strategies from former students
It’s ok to put an answer on the back burner
5-15 minutes

Breaking Numbers Into Place Value
(20+8)+ (20+9) = (20+20) + (8+9) = 40+17 = 40 +10 + 7 = 50 +7 = 57

12+19
Compensation
Make a 12 a friendly number by subtracting 2. Add 2 to 19 to compensate.
12+19= 10 + 21
(12-2) + (19+2)
1 Problem- Many Strategies
12+19
Place Value
Rewrite numbers in expanded form
12+19=( 10+2) +(10+9)
Use associative property to add 10’s and 1’s
10+10=20 2+9=11
20+11=31

12+19
Friendly Landmarks
Adjust 12 and 19 to make the friendly landmarks of 10 and 19.
12-2=10 and 19+1=20
10+20=30
Readjust numbers back
30+2=32

12x15
Decomposing and The Associative Property
Decompose The Factors
12=3x4
15=3x5
12x15=3x4x3x5
Rearrange to friendlier numbers
12x15=(4x5)x (3x3)
Recompose with friendlier numbers
12x15=20x9
12x15=180
1 Problem- Many Strategies
12x15
Distributive Property
Distribute 12 Groups of 15 Into Friendly Groups- 10 Groups of 15 +2 Groups of 15
12x15= (10 x 15) + (2 x 15) = 150+30=180
Or
Distribute 15 Groups of 12 Into Friendly Groups- 10 Groups of 12 + 5 Groups of 12
12x15= (12 x 10) + (12 x 5)= 120 +60=180
1 Problem- Many Strategies
12x15
Doubling and Halving
Double 1 Factor and Halve The Other
12x15=6x30
Decompose 30 Into 3x10
6x30= 6x3x10
Use associative property to multiply a basic fact and multiple of 10
6x3=18
18x10=180

Day 1 – Problem Talk
Ted is saving money for a new bike. He deposits money at
his bank three times a month. Each time he goes, he deposits
$5. How much will he have saved in a year.
First we have to figure out how much he saves in a month3x5
Then we have to find out he saves in a year- (3x5) x12
