    Oh my, now I learn there are words that trigger the result. Lol. I am learning a lot but do you have a key that gives hints?

      It would helpful to have a key on how you would solve each problem.

        I’m not sure what you mean by a “key”. For JOIN and SEPARATE problems, you’ll identify the start, change, and result, and which one is unknown. How the problem is solved varies based on what is unknown and how the problem is set up.

    Does the change always include the mathematical operation for the examples used? I am seeing a pattern in my working out..

      I don’t want to say “always”, but yes, you’re seeing the pattern of identifying the change, which is the action in the problem.
