Description

This freebie includes one addition and one subtraction differentiated word problem. Each problem is created for 3 different math levels. Students can pick the set of numbers they want to use and will write them in the blanks. The first number goes in the first blank and the second number goes in the second blank. Each problem includes a “Pump it Up!” problem to be solved on the back. This is meant for an extra challenge or to keep those “early finishers” busy while you work with other students.

1st set of numbers = easy
2nd set of numbers = medium
3rd set of numbers = hard

The links below are for the complete 2 step differentiated word problem packets!
