This is a flexible set of activities that can easily be incorporated in the classroom routine to complement math instruction. There are 8 basic elements to this curriculum that can be implemented within a few months or extended over the course of a school year. Ideally, it will be implemented as an interdisciplinary, theme-based sequence of activities and projects.

The ** RADAR MI Math Problem-Solving Program ** enhances students' skills in nine Common Core Standards- 3 Reading Standards and 6 Math Standards. . By the end of the RADAR Program students' will have developed skill in the use of a cognitive "toolkit" so they may attack complex story problems systematically and logically. They will also develop a positive attitude toward story problems and.

This program is currently designed for **3rd and 4th grade students** but some materials have been adapted for younger and older students. Currently, kindergarten children are being introduced to a simplified RADAR procedure and 5th grade teachers are making modifications so there is a smooth transition to middle school math.
