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.

We are switching to standard based grading and trying really hard to include all the problem types. This has been a game changer to use in my classroom. I love how all the options are right there and easy to implement in everyday instruction.
