Do your Grade 5 and up students experience difficulty with math word problems? Do you struggle to help them? Or maybe you teach 4th grade and have students who need math enrichment. You are not alone, and we have a solution that works for both needs. Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention builds on the Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Additive and Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention course by introducing two additional math word-problem multiplicative schemas that Grade 4-8 students must learn to develop math competency, Comparison and Ratios and Proportions.
Learning objectives include:
Reviewing ‘what works’ in word-problem instruction
Understanding the three multiplicative schemas
Examining implementation options for the multiplicative schemas within word-problem instruction
