Students choose the tools that they feel they need to solve the problem.

Teachers choose problems so that they will enhance students’

development, but in most cases do not provide explicit instruction on problem-
solving strategies. Instead students develop and share their own problem-solving

strategies, which become more efficient and abstract over time.

The critical consideration is that students are
engaged in deciding how to solve problems using what makes sense to them.

Beginning to use CGI is all about making sense of children’s thinking, listening toyour students, and experimenting with your classroom practice. Learning aboutchildren’s thinking continues as you teach, and thinking about your teaching canhelp you see what more you want to learn about children’s mathematical thinking.

Unlike traditional instruction in which the content to be learned is clearly
sequenced (addition before subtraction) and where students learn skills before they
use them to solve problems, the curriculum in CGI classes is integrated. For
example, students do not learn number facts as isolated bits of information. Rather
they learn them as they repeatedly solve problems, so that they begin to see
relationships between the various facts.

Choosing word problems based in contexts that students are familiar with and giving students tools on how they might solve it. Engaging in discussion to talk it through as a group. Sounds like a good idea.
