Return to the worked example. Ask the learner to explain each step and check the result against the original question.
Questions to Check Understanding
- What does each number in this example represent?
- Why does the final answer have this form?
- Can you explain the same steps using another example?
Practice Advice
Work through the example together. Ask the learner to explain the first two problems, then try three independently. Review the first incorrect step before assigning more practice.
Next Practice
- Use New Numbers to practice the same skill with different values.
- If the learner needs help, return to the example and model each step before trying again.
