Third Quarter

Each “Problem of the Day” is correlated to our Cumberland County Task Analysis for the purpose of practicing each objective through problem solving. Each problem will be either a performance task, short answer, or multiple choice which allows students to work with problems through many avenues. When using “Problem of the Day” provide students with manipulatives (which may include a calculator) and a mathematics journal. Expect that each student solves the problems and records his/her answer in a math journal. Students should include his/her answer along with a number sentence, a unit, a drawing (proof picture), and a written explanation of how the problem was solved. After students have time to solve the problem, students should discuss solution strategies with their team. Following team discussions review the correct answer, the reason it is correct and in the case of multiple choice answers review why answers are incorrect. Special thanks to the second grade members of the Mathematics Leadership Team: Rebecca Borowski, Amanda Butcher and Elaine Lawrence who worked so hard to make these problems possible.
