Cautions • Not everyone sees problems the same way, it is not the classification itself that matters it is that teachers provide problems in all categories.

Example A toy sells for $15. Gary has $9. How much more money does he need to buy the toy?

Start/Change/End • Gary has $9 how much more money will he have to get to make $15?

Part/Whole • Gary has $9, what can be put with the $9 to make $15.

Absolute Comparison • How does the cost of the toy compare to the money Gary has?
