Special Education - Warm Ups - Word Problems - Daily Math - January - Winter

These PRINT AND GO worksheets are an awesome way to integrate real world math reasoning skills into your classroom instruction. Consisting of a daily one or two step word problem, students are asked to figure out what was done incorrectly on the sample prompt to prove their mastery understanding of the concept being assessed. This packet includes TWENTY word problems for the month of JANUARY.

What makes my daily math worksheets different than others? By providing students with the wrong answer, students are empowered to narrow down their choices and come up with a more accurate answer moving forward. This encourages higher level thinking skills and walks students down the process of providing a claim, supporting their claim with evidence, and then explaining their evidence in their own words. Additionally, these worksheets tie in real world concepts like money, shopping, cooking, and time management with a thematic monthly twist to keep students motivated with the problems. Overall, it provides a great, quick way to get students thinking about math in more than just the traditional sense. 

 How I Use This In My Classroom:

Students in my class complete these as daily warm up sheets. Students complete them independently at the beginning of class and then we review them together once everyone is done. Alternatively, you can have students work on this in small groups together and have them alternate in centers throughout the month.
