//A brief snapshot, as if// //someone asked you to// //briefly and clearly// //describe the intent of the// //lesson or project.// ||  ||   ||< Students will solve given word problems and clarify their thinking through words, pictures, and numbers. They will apply and present learned problem solving strategies and explanations using PhotoStory. They will use multiple representations to confirm solutions. As a class we will share solutions. This will expose students to new strategies and extend their thinking. As a conclusion, students will self-assess using a problem solving rubric. || //What will guide student// //inquiry?// ||  ||   ||< How is problem solving used in real life?

__Concept 4: Original Works__ PO1. Use digital creativity tools to create original works. || //What will students learn// //and do?// ||  ||   ||< Students will choose problem solving strategies to solve word problems. Students will use models, symbols, and pictures to show their strategies in multiple ways. Students will evaluate their solutions based on a problem solving rubric. Students will transfer problem solving use to real life scenarios. || //Checklist, Presentation,// //Oral Response, Rubric,// //Test, Quiz, etc.// ||  ||   ||< doubleClickHereAndType || //(e.g., content,// //technology, etc.)// ||  ||   || doubleClickHereAndType || //- Steps in the process// //- Responsibilities// //- Guiding// //- Questions// //- Student products// ||  ||   ||< doubleClickHereAndType || //- Computers// //- Software// //- URLs// //- ameras// //- Presentation Device// //- Handouts, Books// //- Supplies, Other// ||  ||   ||< doubleClickHereAndType || //- Location// //- Teacher / Student roles// //- Group Dynamics// //- Interactions with experts,// //other educators, etc.,// //if applicable// ||  ||   ||< doubleClickHereAndType || //Special Ed, Gifted, ELL// ||  ||   ||< doubleClickHereAndType ||
