Problem Solvers Workshop

A comprehensive printable math sequence featuring two differentiated supermarket showdown activities. Students apply whole-number addition and subtraction budgeting in one set and cashier-level money calculation and change-making in the other.

A comprehensive 45-minute structured small group lesson designed for special education students to master the make-a-ten addition strategy. Students use hands-on double ten frames and counter manipulation to decompose single-digit numbers, fill a complete ten-frame, and bridge from the original addition equation to a friendly 10-plus fact.

A large-print, print-ready special education math worksheet for counting 3D wooden geoblock structures from 1 to 10 with write-in boxes and number choice options.

A three-lesson sequence helping early learners master two-digit numbers through concrete base-ten modeling, expanded notation, number words, and multi-form representations.

A comprehensive multi-digit addition and subtraction unit covering one, two, and three-digit operations with regrouping, featuring six progressive independent practice pages and targeted homework assignments with full answer keys.

A student-facing exit ticket worksheet designed for special education learners. Features 3 scaffolded problems with visual double ten-frames, explicit 2nd addend number-bond decomposition prompts, bite-size step cues, and dedicated handwriting lines for both the 10+ friendly number sentence and original addition sentence.

A 3-part structured math sequence for special education students progressing through concrete, representational, and abstract comparisons of quantities and numbers. Students count visual sets, master more and fewer concepts, and compare numbers using relational symbols.

A comprehensive addition and subtraction unit spanning one-digit, two-digit, and three-digit operations with and without regrouping. Includes a multi-page mixed practice packet and a detailed teacher answer key with diagnostics.

A reusable double ten-frame student math mat featuring color-coded frames, bite-size visual step cues, an explicit 2nd addend decomposition number-bond space with verbal math-talk cues, and dedicated lines for writing both the original number sentence and the 10+ number sentence. Includes printable equation task strips with decomposition prompts.

A dynamic 3-day sequence building addition fluency up to 20 through properties, mental math strategies, and multi-addend problem solving. Students master foundational vocabulary, doubles, making 10, and word problem modeling.

A structured 45-minute explicit lesson plan for special education small groups focusing on the make-a-ten addition strategy. Features explicit teacher scripts and student talk protocols for decomposing the second addend, multi-sensory concrete-representational-abstract routines, and targeted misconception corrections.
