Use a problem‑solving model: analyze, plan, solve, justify, and evaluate.
Teachers can use 2.1B to sequence instruction on Problem‑solving model and monitor progress toward mastery.
Standard 2.1B in Mathematics helps students understand Problem‑solving model and apply knowledge with confidence.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 2.1B.
Standard 2.1B describes the essential skills and understandings for Problem‑solving model in Grade 2. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Problem‑solving model, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 2.1B.
