Help students reveal the math behind the wordsSolving problems is about more than computation. Students must understand the mathematics of a situation to know what computation will lead to an appropriate solution.  Mathematize It! shares a reasoning approach that helps students dig into the problem to uncover the underlying mathematics, deeply consider the problem¿s context, and employ strong operation sense to solve it. This user-friendly resource for Grades K-2·         Offers a systematic mathematizing process for solving word problems·         Provides specific examples of questions and explorations for addition and subtraction of whole numbers as well as early thinking for multiplication and division·         Demonstrates the use of concrete manipulatives to model problems with dozens of short videos

This book is designed to help teachers and students understand the meaning of operations in a coherent way that makes sense as students move from whole numbers to fractions, decimals, and integers.
