Description
Numberless word problems are designed to provide scaffolding that allows students the opportunity to develop a better understanding of word problems.
Word problems can be a tough concept for students to understand. Often times, students will see a word problem, pull the two numbers from the word problem, and then quickly add or subtract the two numbers without taking the time to fully process what it is that the word problem is asking.
Numberless word problems guide students through their thinking and reasoning as to why they are adding or why they are subtracting.

I needed to use this at the beginning of the year to review addition and subtraction word problem types for my students. I was very thankful that this resource included ALL the types, not just some of them.

I used these with my 4th grade students that are way behind academically. They struggle to comprehend word problems and create an equation. Numberless word problems allows us to focus on what’s happening in the story vs. the numbers.
