What this worksheet teaches

• Show understanding of Word Problems in writing, so an adult can see the method used rather than only the final answer.
• Use the vocabulary of Word Problems correctly when reading each instruction and explaining an answer aloud.
• Recognise the common mistakes in Word Problems by checking completed work before handing the sheet in.
• Apply Word Problems to short, familiar examples so the skill transfers beyond this worksheet.

How to use this worksheet

Do the first half of the page with your child and let them finish the second half on their own. Comparing the two halves is useful: if the supported questions are right and the independent ones are not, the method is understood but not yet automatic, and short daily practice on Word Problems will fix it faster than one long session.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Sam had 12 apples. He bought 8 more. How many apples does he have
2. A box has 25 pencils. 10 pencils were taken out. How many are left?
