A cover and 4 pages. Three pages hold 12 numbered problem cards, 4 per page, such as "Your tooth hurts when you eat." or "The lamp in your room will not turn on.", each with 3 picture choices labeled A, B and C. The card pages read: "Read the card. Look at the picture. Which helper can help you? Choose A, B or C." A recording sheet has spaces for all 12 answers, and an answer key is included.
Can I use the "Who Can Help?" Problem Solving Cards at home and in the classroom?

Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 5th Grade community helpers, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
