RACECAR Strategy


RACECAR Strategy

I am learning to use the RACECAR problem solving strategy.
I am so proud of using a new strategy for my Maths.
It can be tricky to choose the correct strategy to work out the answer to the problem eg choose Number Line, Place Value Partitioning, Reversability
My Parents can help me by giving me some problems at home and practising it with me.
The next step for me in my learning is to use this strategy to help me to solve harder sums.

I am learning to use clues and information in the text to visualise a part of the story.

The pictures can help me by giving me ideas of what I can draw.
The next step for me in my learning is to keep going even though I find this strategy tough.
