Operations Charts Keep these operations charts posted by the wall you usually work out math word problems. Print them in color and paste them on the same color construction paper. (laminate) As you problem solve, ask students what they are doing in the problem. Ex. Jack has 5 apples. He gives 3 apples to Jay. How many does he have left? Are we combining 2 or more groups? Are we taking something away? Are we looking for a missing part? Refer to the charts every time you work out a problem. Soon you will see the students looking at the wall to check themselves. As high stakes assessments come around. Flip the charts around. The color will still be there. As they work out problems, you will still see them looking at the colored construction paper for guidance.

3 4 ? 3 4 ?Addition Combine 2 or more groups of things = ? part-part whole model drawing number sentence

? 2 9Subtraction (take away) Take away some things from a group = ? ? 2 9 part-part whole model drawing number sentence

? 2 9 ? 2 9Subtraction (missing part) Find a missing part of a group = ? part-part whole model drawing number sentence

? 2 9Subtraction (Comparative) Compare 2 groups of things = ? 2 ? A B part-part whole model drawing number sentence

Multiplication Multiplication is combining two or more equal groups to get the product. 4 X 8 =? ? – number of groups ? part-part whole model drawing number sentence

Division Separate a group of things into smaller groups of equal size 20 ÷ 4 = ? 20 apples ? ??? 4 – number of groups ? ??? 20 apples part-part whole model drawing number sentence

Division Find how many groups of equal size can be made with a collection of things. 20 ÷ 5 = ? ? – number of groups part-part whole model drawing number sentence

Division Separate one whole thing into several smaller things of equal size 20 ÷ 5 = ? 20 feet of rope ? – number of groups ft part-part whole model drawing number sentence
