*Please note that enrollment in this course requires successful completion of the following 2 courses: Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Introduction to a Word-Problem Intervention and Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Additive and Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention.
Do your Grade 5 and up students experience difficulty with math word problems? Do you struggle to help them? Or maybe you teach Grade 4 and have students who need math enrichment. You are not alone, and we have a solution that works for both needs. Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention builds on the Pirate Math Equation Quest (PMEQ): Additive and Multiplicative Schema Word-Problem Intervention course by introducing two additional math word-problem multiplicative schemas that Grade 4-8 students must learn to develop math competency: Comparison and Ratios, and Proportions.
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Review what works in word-problem instruction.
- Understand the three multiplicative schemas.
- Examine implementation options for the multiplicative schemas within word-problem instruction.
