If you've already participated in one of SDE's model-drawing presentations, you know what a powerful strategy model drawing can be. If you haven't had a chance to try this approach yet, just wait until you try it for yourself and then introduce it to your students. You'll see right away how it brings their understanding of mathematics to a whole new level—helping them to truly grasp the relationships among numbers and to understand how to solve word problems.

For support in sharing model-drawing strategies with your students you'll find one new problem for each grade level (1–6), drawn from our exciting new workbook series, Word Problems for Model Drawing Practice. These problems are just right for perfecting your own model-drawing skills, for guiding your students through the process of model drawing, and for giving students the additional practice they need to become truly proficient.
