Hello! It's nice to meet you! I am a Special Education Teacher supporting students with Math in grades 3-6 in South Louisiana. I've spent a majority of my teaching career in 5th grade Math, but have also taught 6th and 7th grade Math with a couple of random Science and ELA years sprinkled in. I create resources to use with my students and only post those that I think will benefit other teachers. This is a side-hustle, not a full-time job for me. So, on that note, I hope you find something to make your job just a little more manageable.

There's nothing that frustrates me more than students number-plucking when working word problems. They just pluck the numbers out of the problem and start calculating using any random operation. Numberless Word Problems are a great way to ensure that students are actually reading the word problem and thinking about "why" they are choosing a specific operation. But these aren't ordinary "numberless" word problems. These evolve into "NUMBER-FUL" Word Problems! This product is made in Google
