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.

It really made my students stop and think about what the question was asking. I liked that It also had slides with the numbers in it as well.

My students were having so much trouble understanding word problems. I realized that much of their difficulty came from not stopping to understand the story, but instead just focusing on the numbers. Introduce numberless word problems!!! GAME CHANGER!! I started doing some of these problems with them and now they are finally starting to think more about the problem with less focus being just on the numbers. Thank you.
