In previous lessons, students made sense of and acted out stories. This is the first lesson where students are introduced to story problems that include a question. In the first activity, students develop questions to go with stories. In the second activity, students represent a story problem and discuss how to solve the story problem. Students may use objects, math tools, or drawings to represent and solve the story problem (MP5).
