Kate has 9 yellow apples. She also had 6 red apples. How many more yellow apples thatn red apples does Kate have? |
Compare, Difference Unknown |
Students used counting on, direct modeling, (pictures) Some teachers used a lower number of apples and some students still didn't know what to do. Students used comparisons without always understanding that they are using subtraction. |

Dawn want to make apple pies. Each pie needs 5 apples. How amny apples does Dawn need to make 3 pies? |
Multiplication |
Students used direct modeling. Some students still uncertain about how to proceed. Tried number sentences and that didn't work for many students. Our discussion let the group to decide that we should try the same kind of problem (or strategy) over time so that we could use that information for discussion pruposes. |

Annie had 12 pencils. She needs to put them in boxes. 10 pencils fit in each box. How many boxes can she fill with pencils? |
|
Found that the language of this problem was difficult for some students. Many students wanted to say two boxes since some of the pencils could be used to start a second box. Direct modeling was used by many students. |
