Ideas for Differentiating the Math Message

Grade 3, Lesson 2.5

  • Madeline had $38 in her bank account. She deposited another $15. How much money was in her account then?
    • Use base-ten blocks or hundreds grid to support the addition

 

Grade 3, Lesson 2.9

  • The ostriches in the zoo had 4 clutches this year. They laid 13 eggs, 9 eggs, 7 eggs and 11 eggs. How many in all?
    • Change the context of the problem to support those struggling with the language (ex. clutches)
    • Use 3 addends instead of 4
    • Use numbers involving complements of 10
