Introduction Mathematics is one of the most challenging aspects of the school curriculum for many students, and a concern is the lack of achievement in multi-digit computation with regrouping and word problems. Specifically, out of 29 mathematics difficulties, special education teachers ranked word problems as the most problematic, multi-step problems as second most problematic, and regrouping as the seventh most problematic area for students with learning disabilities (LD) (Bryant& Bryant, 2008).

The “RENAME” Strategy for Addition With Regrouping Read the problem. Examine the ones column: 10 or more, go next door. Note the ones in the ones column. Address the tens column: 10 or more, go next door. Mark tens in the tens column. Examine and note hundreds; exit with a quick check.
“10 or More” Sentences Adding the Ones: If adding the numbers in the ones column results in 10 or more, regroup to form a ten (10 or more, go next door). Adding the Tens: If adding the numbers in the tens column results in 10 or more, regroup to form a hundred (10 or more, go next door).
Examine the ones column: 10 or more, go next door. If adding the numbers in the ones column results in 10 or more, regroup to form a ten (10 or more, go next door).
Address the tens column: 10 or more, go next door. If adding the numbers in the tens column results in 10 or more, regroup to form a hundred (10 or more, go next door).
The “RENAME” Strategy for Subtraction With Regrouping Read the problem. Examine the ones column: use the BBB Sentence for ones. Note the ones in the ones column. Address the tens column: use the BBB Sentence for tens. Mark tens in the tens column. Examine and note hundreds; exit with a quick check.
“BBB” Sentences BBB Sentence for Ones: Bigger number on Bottom means Break down a ten and trade. BBB Sentence for Tens: Bigger number on Bottom means Break down a hundred and trade.
Examine the ones column: use the BBB Sentence for ones. Bigger number on Bottom means Break down a ten and trade.
Address the tens column: use the BBB Sentence for tens. Bigger number on Bottom means Break down a hundred and trade.
Word Problems • Join Problems • Separate Problems • Part – Part – Whole Problems • Compare Problems • Extraneous Information • Student-Originated Problems
The “FAST RENAME” Strategy for Word Problems With Regrouping Step 1:Find what you’re solving for. Step 2:Ask yourself, “What are the parts of the problem?” Step 3:Set up the numbers. Step 4:Tie down the sign. Use the “RENAME” Strategy for computation.
Combined Problem-Solving Methods • Explicit Instruction • Concrete – Representational – Abstract (CRA) Teaching Sequence • Schema-Based Diagrams • The “READER” Strategy
Read the problem. The “READER”Strategy Step 1:Read the problem. Step 2:Examine the question. Step 3:Abandon irrelevant (unneeded) information. Step 4:Determine the operation using diagrams, if needed. Step 5:Enter numbers. Step 6:Record answer. Juan collects rocks. His sister collects dolls. Juan had fifteen rocks before going to the park. Today, Juan collected five more rocks at the park. How many rocks does Juan have in all?
