My Quote: 



We have been studying the problem solving strategies in math. After my students learned the strategies, explored them on the Internet, and solved problems using them they created their own problems using the strategy. Click on the strategy to see the problem they created and if you can solve it using the suggested strategy.
 
  Guess and Check This strategy means that you guess the answer; test it in the problem to see if it is correct; then adjust your next guess from what you learned. Revise as needed until you find the solution.
  Look for a Pattern This strategy means looking for repetitions that are numerical, visual, or behavioral.  From the pattern discovered, you can predict the outcome or continue the pattern. 
Make an Organized List This strategy helps you organize your thinking and provides a systematic way of checking data.
Draw a Picture or a
Diagram
This strategy is a way to visualize the parts of the problem. Use the data to draw a picture or diagram that represents the problem. The visualization helps a complex seem simpler.
  Work Backwards This strategy is helpful when you must make a series of computations and you know how the problem ends but not how it starts.
  Make it Simpler This strategy works well when you have a problem with large numbers that seems overwhelming.  Reduce the larger numbers to simpler ones or solve a simpler problem. Then apply it to the original problem.
  Use Logical Reasoning This strategy is one that gets applied with many of the other strategies. Problems need to be worked through one step at a time and clues need to be analyzed to solve the problem.
Make a Table or Chart This strategy is another way to organize the data, especially numbers. It aids in spotting missed data and helps to see the data more clearly.
