Day 1: One Step Word Problems: Addition vs. Subtraction
See why over THREE HUNDRED teachers are using these word problems all operations in their classrooms!
- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I love that it focuses on really understanding the operations and making a plan to solve each problem.”
- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This resource is the most effective way I have found to teach multistep word problems."
- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Such a well-designed resource. Clearly presented and easy to use!”
- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “My students were engaged in the lessons and actually started to like word problems!”
I hear it from teachers ALL. THE. TIME…
“My students know how to multiply and how to divide with fluency, they just don't know WHEN to use each operation! They are excellent at solving word problems when we are working on one specific operation, but when all operations are mixed up, it's a disaster!”
The beauty of this unit is the scaffolding. We start by focusing on just two operations at once, diving into what they really mean. Then slowly, we introduce new operations until our students are solving complex 2-step word problems by Day 10!

The MAGIC behind Sally's “gradual release model”...
- Each of Sally’s packets follow an “I Do, We Do, You Do” format. A math concept is introduced whole group, students then practice with a partner, and finish with independent work time. This deliberate scaffolding keeps students from feeling defeated or frustrated!
- Sally’s packets also build slowly in difficulty. We meet students where they are, regardless of level. As students gain confidence, the problems get progressively harder. Not all students will complete all problems and that is by design!
- Each packet finishes with a “Challenge Page” for high flyers who need an extra push, great for those early finishers!
In addition to the deliberate scaffolding, each lesson in this word problems all operations unit includes an instructional guide jam-packed with teaching hacks and best practices. There is also a “Misconceptions” section that allows you to be one step ahead of mistakes students are most likely to make.
These fourth grade word problems are common core aligned to the following 4th grade common core standards. However, it could be used as a review unit for any middle school math classroom.
- 4.NBT.4 (Addition & subtraction)
- 4.NBT.5 (Multiplication)
- 4.NBT.6 (Division)
- 4.OA.2 (Multiplicative comparison word problems)
- 4.OA.3 (Multistep word problems all operations)
