  2. A Starting Point for Problem Solving Many children think of mathematics as a subject that relies on their memorizing facts and practicing skills. But, the true test of children’s success in mathematics is when they can’t remember a fact or have forgotten a skill, they are able to think, reason, and solve problems and make sense of mathematical ideas. Marilyn Burns

  36. Tour of the Islands This is a game for 2 to 4 players The object is to be the first to land on each of the islands on the game board and then return to the Mainland. • Each player chooses a different-color crayon or marker to record his or her plays on the game board map. Decide who goes first. • The first player puts an X anywhere on the Mainland to mark a starting point and decides which island to visit first. • Each player announces an estimate of the distance on the map from the starting point to the island. • Then, starting at the X, the player lays down a train of Cuisenaire Rods equal to the estimate so that the train extends in the direction of the first island. • The player then marks where the train ends. If the train reaches the island, on the next turn the player can proceed in the same way to any other island. • If the train does not reach the island, the player must “tread water” and try to reach the island from this location on the next turn. • Each player chooses a different starting point on the Mainland, marks it with an X, and follows the same procedure to go from island to island in any order. • Players take turns. When players have visited all the islands, they use the same procedure to return to their starting point on the mainland. • The player who returns to the starting point first is the winner.

  37. Closure Choose two islands on the map and write a set of directions for how to estimate and find the distance between them.
