This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains sample anchor charts to create with students. Anchor charts are to be made with students, then displayed as a classroom reference. Parents may also benefit from seeing anchor charts, as they provide a snapshot into the math class.Remix this resource to include pictures of your own anchor charts.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers.In this lesson, students will solve higher-level word problems involving three addends.  The rich problems allow for multiple solutions, so the focus will be on student thinking rather than correct answers.  Students will explore various strategies to solve and will be asked to attempt new strategies, including writing matching equations, once that has been modeled by others.   This resource includes a lesson plan, answer key, and printable exit ticket.  Remix this lesson to include extension activities of photos of student work samples.
