Document Summary
Number concepts, non sequential counting, commutative principle, use of appropriate strategies, math fact retrieval. Problems storing basic facts in long-term memory and accessing them. Ability to perform mental math and make comparisons in the world. Knowledge of effects of operations on numbers. Knowledge that numbers measure things in the real world. Count on from larger addend or shortcut sum. Underlying rules for each of the four operations. Rote repetition -ignores commutative principle and does not give a framework for organizing information learned. Near 10"s (8+4 is close to 8+2 which is 10) Cue student to perform all of the steps in the correct order. Applying basic facts and computational skills to novel situations. Problem representation translation of problem into meaningful written symbols on paper, actual objects, or mental imagery. Problem solution selection and application of appropriate math operations based on the representation. Explicit instruction in problem solving and graphic representation of word problems.
