Lesson 12: Equal Groups Word Problems

We reviewed the previous patterns of word problems we have learned so far:

• Some and Some More (an addition pattern)


• Some Went Away (a subtraction pattern)


• Larger-Smaller-Difference (a subtraction pattern with key words how much more, how much greater, how much less, etc.)


• Later-Earlier-Difference (a sbutraction pattern dealing with TIME)


• Today we learned Equal Groups (a multiplication problem with the key word EACH)

We also discussed that there will be a substitute tomorrow since Ms. Francoeur will be chaperoning the 8th grade field trip to the Career Expo in Waukesha. It was explained to students that their behavior is expected to be exceptional tomorrow. ANY discruptive or disrespectful behavior, including being late to class, will result in 2 detentions after school with Ms. Francoeur.
