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 love that these are easy to add to my slideshow that I use on a daily basis. It’s nice for the students to focus on the words first to figure out what they’ll need to do in the problem, then add in the numbers to truly solve it.
