Math Module 1 Information Page
Now that we have reviewed finding the value of a number using manipulatives, let's move into Common Core's Module 1.  We will continue to use the Base Ten Blocks and Place Value Disks in the module to help apply our understanding of the value of a number in the Place Value chart.  Please keep in mind that we ultimately want to be able to apply our understanding of place value to the standard algorithm.

Word Problems using a Bar Model (aka Tape Diagram) and the RDWW strategy we use in class:
ead the word problem & extract (underline) the information needed to solve the problem
Draw picture to represent the problem
Write a number sentence horizontally to represent your drawing
Write an explanation of your answer to check for reasonableness
