CERCA SLIDES
Business Math
“Every teacher is a reading teacher.” This set of CERCA Slides shows the truth of that statement. We aim our spotlight on financial literacy, helping students understand how businesses make money!
This set of lessons guide students through the process of reading math-based texts critically and solving everyday problems with computational skills. With a direct instruction focus on creating math sentences, it also provides opportunity for guided writing practice in math.
