Google Interactive Problem-Solution Clip Cards

Do you have trouble getting your students to identify the problem and solution in a story? We’ve been working hard to create the perfect resources to help you change passive listeners into active readers! This resource is the perfect opportunity to encourage your students to think about what is happening in the story and not just read words without question.

This Google Interactive activity has students looking at images of problems as they happen. They must then click and drag an icon to identify the solution to the problem shown in the image. 

Through this activity, students can identify the problem and potential solutions in a fictional text or image.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your reading lessons.

In addition to individual student work time, use this activity to enhance learning through guided reading groups, whole class lessons, or remote learning assignments. 

If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners and ELL/ESL students, we have a few suggestions for keeping students on track with these concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Encourage students to further their learning by explaining their reasoning. 

Provide your students with a reference sheet or problem and solution anchor chart while completing the activity.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

 Invite students to use a visual of story elements such as an anchor chart or classroom poster. 

🧑‍🏫 Group Learning

Project the slides onto a screen and work through them as a class by having students record their answers in their notebooks or mini whiteboards. 

Easily Prepare This Resource for Your Students

Use the dropdown icon on the Download button to choose between the Google Slides version of this resource. 

Assign this interactive activity to Google Classroom. Please be sure to open in Edit mode, not Presentation mode. Students click/drag/drop to identify the correct solutions for the problems shown.

Alternatively, print slides to use for your: 

  • Lesson warm-ups
  • End-of-the-day wrap-ups
  • Fast finisher activities 
  • Homework assignments.
