R.U.C.K.S.A.C.K. actually doesn't stand for anything. It's actually a German knapsack.

RUCSAC, an acronym from the UK primary school sector, is a tool that helps children to solve mathematical word problems.

R = read. Read the word problem.

U = understand or underline important parts of question. Part of understanding I guess.

C = Choose calculation - What operation and the 'number sentence'. Also need to decide on the units the answer will be in.

S = Solve. Carry out the chosen calculation.

A = Answer. Write out the full answer including units.

C = Check. Check to see if it really makes sense. Carry out any inverse operation calculations etc. Even share with a friend.
