It was perfect!! I I found it on Pinterest. I wrote a story problem on the board and we sang each line of the song and labeled the problem. By the end, we had used all of the strategies, solved the problem and learned the words to the song. It was so fun for my students. I hope this will help them to remember to use their problem solving strategies. :) Singing, music and movements or signals has helped me teach my students to remember to use strategies and show their work. Happy singing!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15306621194188176128noreply@blogger.com
