Math Word Problems DVD

Math Word Problems DVD
Rock ’N Learn assembled a team of teachers known for getting high scores from their students on state-mandated math tests. We also examined standardized tests in several states and discovered the winning strategies for boosting scores and reducing stress. Marko’s clear explanations, fun songs, and outrageous humor add to the excitement.

Although the math material on this DVD is at a third grade level, students in the fourth grade will also benefit from the review of concepts and strategies for getting top scores on a standardized math test.

Marko the Pencil’s irresistible humor throughout the program helps students stay focused. Step by step, kids practice the top strategies proven to boost their test scores on a math test. They learn to analyze word problems, filter extraneous information, and rule out multiple-choice options that could not be correct. By following these steps, students have a much better chance of choosing the right answers.

Students learn the importance of reading each problem carefully, checking answers to see if they are reasonable, and knowing their math terms and definitions.

As a special reward at the end of Math Word Problems DVD, Marko the Pencil makes an appearance at the Golden Stylus Comedy room. His clever math jokes will have kids laughing and retelling the jokes to others. Marko is played by Vic Mignogna, Best Actor, 2007 American Anime Awards.
