K-W-C

K-W-C is a numeracy strategy resource from the National FFA Organization that helps students break down multi-step word math problems by filtering what they Know, what they Want to find out, and the Conditions/rules to watch for. It includes a worked agriculture example (calculating combine harvest time and fuel cost) and a blank reproducible K-W-C chart for student use.
