Math Problematic Tasks

Introduction to Problem Solving Bank
The purpose of the Problem Solving Bank is to provide teachers with a resource to assist in transitioning from teaching traditionally to teaching through problem solving and inquiry utilizing the process standards and mathematical practices of problem solving, communication, connection, reasoning and proof, and representation.  This Problem Solving Bank was created also to guide teachers in the process of how to create their own worthwhile tasks that would specifically meet the needs of their students.

These problematic tasks were created by Rock Hill Schools Elementary teachers. Teachers used the following guidelines to direct their collaborative thinking about how students learn best using best teaching practices and standards.
