Understanding the RDW Process in Math

The video tutorial introduces the Redraw Write (RDW) strategy for solving math word problems. It breaks down the process into three steps: Read, Draw, and Write. The 'Read' step involves understanding the problem and identifying key information. The 'Draw' step focuses on creating a visual model to represent the problem, using tools like arrays or diagrams. The 'Write' step involves articulating the solution in words and numbers. The tutorial concludes with a review of the RDW process and mentions additional resources available on the instructor's website.
