How To Solve a Word Problem

We've been practicing math word problems GALORE! In order to help us remember the steps to solving a word problem we created a quick poem. Check it out!

Lyrics:

Read the problem,

Underline,

What is it I need to find?

Pick a strategy,

Show my work,

Check my answer, be sure it works!
