Math Problem Solving Strategies

This is one in a series of resources to help you focus on specific problem solving strategies in the classroom.

Making & Using a Table

What are the 4 problem solving steps?

After carefully reading the problem, students will:

  • Step 1: Circle the math words.
  • Step 2: Ask yourself: Do I understand the problem?
  • Step 3: Solve the problem using words and pictures below.
  • Step 4: Share the answer along with explaining why the answer makes sense.

Making & Using a Table to Solve Problems

 This set of problems assumes children have already had instruction on how to create a table to organize their information. 

The problems give them different scenarios and the students have to organize the information in their own tables in order to solve the problems. 

If you have students who still need additional support, we have provided pages with the table already added to get them started. 

For even more support, you could add some starting information in the table. 

As always, we feel its important to differentiate for the needs of individuals or groups in your classrooms.

You can download this set of making and using tables to solve problems practice here:
