Help students learn to solve problems with whole numbers with these real life problems that are particularly suited to older and adult learners. We use them in two ways.
• Run a teacher-led problem solving activity with attractively presented problems in the Powerpoint presentation. It works well if students work in pairs as this encourages math talk. Better still, use the problems with shared mini-whiteboards or tablets so that you can see all answers when you ask students to hold them up.
• Alternatively, you can print the worksheet version for students to work through at their own pace.
The 14 problems are suitable for all ages but the interesting real life contexts make them particularly suited to older learners of numeracy skills.
Files for three versions are included.
International version has $ and metric units.
UK version has £ and metric units.
EU version has € and metric units.
Suited to ages 10 to 99.
