 Drawing a picture or diagram  Making an organized list  Making a table  Solving a simpler related problem  Finding a pattern  Guessing and checking  Experimenting  Acting out the problem  Working backwards  Writing an equation Today’s Topics Tree Diagram Organized list Make a table

 Work smart!  If you find your planned strategy is not effective, consider change your point of view or use alternative strategy.

 Does your answer make sense.  Work backward and see if you arrive to the same answer.
