The premise behind Daily Word Problems is simple and straightforward-frequent, focused practice leads to mastery and retention of the skills practiced. When you guide your students in solving a word problem a day, they gain confidence and competence. The weekly themes in grade 2 are interesting and varied-a picnic, pets at school, balloon, and little league.

Possibly the biggest challenge teachers face in the classroom is getting their pupils to think for themselves. When children learn to think independently, they are able to take control of their own learning. What’s more, they become good at dealing with the many problems that life will inevitably throw their way – not only good at solving these problems, but at choosing the kind of thinking strategies that will help solve them.
This book suggests ways to organise the classroom, provides teaching strategies and pupil activities and gives notes on assessment and record-keeping. It is complemented by several pages of proformas, which can be copied or amended for use in the classroom.
