Solve Subtraction Word Problems
This operations and algebraic thinking lesson covers how to solve subtraction word problems. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem, write an equation for it, use a drawing strategy, and then solve for the missing number, which could be the difference or the subtrahend or minuend.

Use Fact Families
1.OA.3 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract. Examples: If 8 + 3 = 11 is known, then 3 + 8 = 11 is also known. (Commutative property of addition.) To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12. (Associative property of addition.)
1.OA.41.OA.4 Understand subtraction as an unknown-addend problem. For example, subtract 10 - 8 by finding the number that makes 10 when added to 8.

Memorize Subtraction Facts
This operations and algebraic thinking lesson covers how to memorize subtraction facts. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will practice the subtraction facts of numbers 2 through 10 by a combination of reading aloud and writing each fact many times in horizontal and vertical formats.

Solve Addition Equations
This algebra and functions lesson focuses on writing addition number sentences. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the word problem and identify addition key words and number words. Then, they write an addition number sentence and practice reading aloud. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

Use the Equal Sign
This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using the equal sign. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem and complete the math fact. Then, they determine whether the two numbers are equal or not equal using the appropriate symbols. Finally, students interpret the answer using the math fact. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of equal sign flash cards and eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

Create Story Problems
This algebra and functions lesson focuses on creating story problems. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the number sentence and object. Then, they create a story problem that includes how many objects the person has, how many objects are added or subtracted, and what the last sentence tells us to do. Finally, students should read their story problems aloud. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
