But when they go to the lunch line to buy food items none of them use addition . What can she do to get her students to translate her lessons to real world situations? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) She can provide them with real world connections during the math instruction. By doing this, they are transferring their knowledge to real world connections that they can carry with them. They can begin practicing word problems that may involve the cafeteria scenarios.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I don't think this would be a good idea. Some students have a different way of learning things. I think a more hands on approach would be ideal.
