What facts do we know?

We know we are given the total amount of money Conner spent on the cards altogether.

We know the cost of Rookie cards and Hall of Famer cards.

Multiple Choice

What question are we trying to answer?

• How much the baseball cards cost

• How many of each type of card Conner bought

• What types of cards he bought

Since we are trying to find how many of each type of card Conner bought, we are going to have to use Guess and Check to solve.

Solve by using guess and check and by multiplying and dividing.

*Hint: There can be more than one answer!

Be prepared to discuss your answer in breakout rooms with your group, before starting the independent practice problems.

Poll

Solve, to find how many of each type of card Conner bought. When you are done, select yes. You will be given 3 minutes.

• Yes

• No, I need a little more time.

Poll

How do you feel about using guess and check to solve word problems?

Breakout Room Activity

In breakout rooms, you will work through problems 1, and 2 of your independent practice.

Each group will have a google slide to show your work.

Each group should have a timekeeper, a reporter (that will read the problem and answer aloud to the class, a writer (that will make sure all of the work is shown on the slide), and a presenter (that will present their screen to the class). When you get into your breakout rooms, decide your job.

YOU HAVE 8 MINUTES TO WORK THROUGH THE TWO PROBLEMS.
