Math - Word Problem Intervention: Advanced Multiplicative Schema
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
*Please note that enrollment in this course requires successful completion of the following 2 courses: Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Introduction to a Word-Problem Intervention and Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Additive and Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention. Please take these two courses before you participate in this Multiplicative Schemas Course to ensure you optimize your understanding of the content. When you successfully complete these prerequisites, you will be given an enrollment key to access this course.
