1. Understand– Make sure you understand what the question is asking. If you need clarifications, please ask Ms. Trask.
2. Process– There is often more than one way to get to a solution. You may want to consider some of the following questions.
How do you get started?
What approaches should you try?
Where did you get stuck?
What drawing, chart, graph, or model can you use?
3. Solution- State your solutions as clearly as you can. Include any drawings, graphs, and lists and so on that you used to help you. Defend why you believe your solution is correct or the best possible answer. Your explanations should be written in a way that will be convincing to someone else.
Terry and Gina
Terry is now two-thirds Gina's age. In five years, she will be three-fourths Gina's age and five years ago she was half of Gina's age. How old are Terry and Gina?
Good Luck!
Remember to put your name and math teacher's name on your paper. Put your completed answer in the box labeled POW - it should be in your core classroom.
