Understanding Math Story Problems
Second Edition
Martha McGlothlin

This workbook teaches students how to use language to comprehend and solve math story problems and to apply these principles to everyday use. It can be used individually or in groups and includes suggestions for both teachers and parents. Key vocabulary words and phrases are presented as clues to guide students in selecting the calculations to use to solve story problems. This is especially helpful for students who may be able to perform the calculations but who cannot always interpret the language in the story problems. The problems are controlled for vocabulary, sentence length, and complexity according to reading level. A pretest identifies students who are unable to perform the calculations required in the story problems.

Time Concepts
James Lattyak and Suzanne Dedrick

This series focuses on teaching specific time concepts used in everyday conversations and printed media, such as public transportation schedules, employment regulations and newspapers.

The series uses visual presentation of concepts of day, week, month, season and year in a variety of independent student activities of increasing difficulty, including review pages. The workbooks contain suggested procedures for the teacher and answer keys for self-correction.
