I teach fifth grade. We work a lot with fractions and measurement (plus conversions). Right now my students do a good job with learning the steps for math concepts, but they are having difficulties transferring it over to word problems. Do you have any book suggestions for problem solving and/or strategies you use in your classroom with problem solving?
