    y = cookie
    Cookie Monster has a biscuit jar. He starts off with 8 biscuits in one jar but takes some biscuits away. He buys another jar that has 6 biscuits and takes away the same amount of biscuits he took away before. But, Cookie Monster decided to be nice so he gave the first jar to Elmo. How many cookies did he take from the jar each time?

  2. You are missing the part about where everything equals to 1. Why did the Cookie Monster "take" the biscuits away? Be more creative than a person just taking away and adding it in.

    2. *FIXED*

      1) Does the story fit with the equation? Is it functional? Would you actually write this equation from this word story problem?
      You are missing the part about where everything equals to 1, and don't forget
      2) Does it make sense, or is it a little confusing? Discuss what is not clear, and suggest improvements.
      The story makes clear sense
      3) Are there any grammatical mistakes? How should they be corrected?
      There are no grammatical mistakes
      4) Is the story creative? How could it be made better?
      This type of problem is too common, where one character is taking away an amount from a stash
      5) What are the positive points about the word problem?
      It is simple and clear to make the equation

  3. 1) Does the story fit with the equation? Is it functional? Would you actually write this equation from this word story problem?
    The Story fits with the equation but it is not functional because it doesn't state that the amount of cookies left is one. I will actually write this equation if there was the fact that 1 cookie was left.

    2) Does it make sense, or is it a little confusing? Discuss what is not clear, and suggest improvements.
    It makes sense!! :)

    3) Are there any grammatical mistakes? How should they be corrected?
    There aren't any grammatical mistakes.

    4) Is the story creative? How could it be made better?
    The story is creative but it could be better if you guys included some details such as what kind of biscuits but the idea of Cookie Monster and Elmo was really good!

    5) What are the positive points about the word problem?
    The characters are cute and creative. Also, the explanations are very simple!

    Cookie Monster has a biscuit jar. He starts off with 8 biscuits in one jar but takes some biscuits away. He buys another jar that has 6 biscuits and takes away the same amount of biscuits he took away before. But, Cookie Monster decided to be nice so he gave the first jar to Elmo and had 1 cookie left over. How many cookies did he take from the jar each time?

    The story fits the equation but it is not functional and I would not write this equation.

    2) Does it make sense, or is it a little confusing? Discuss what is not clear, and suggest improvements.
    It makes sense and it is not functional

    3) Are there any grammatical mistakes? How should they be corrected?
    There aren't any grammatical mistakes.

    4) Is the story creative? How could it be made better?
    The story is creative but why cookie I though it was only biscuit.

    5) What are the positive points about the word problem?
    Nice Character choice we like Cookie monsters.

    Cookie Monster has a cookie jar. He starts off with 8 cookies in one jar but devours some cookies. He buys another jar that has 6 cookies and eats the same amount of cookies he ate before. But, Cookie Monster decided to be nice so he gave the first jar to Elmo and had 1 cookie left over. How many cookies did he take from the jar each time?
