This product is meant to help 4th graders practice solving multi-step word problems with addition and subtraction. There is also one question that addresses rounding to estimate answers. While the directions do not instruct students to use the standard algorithm to solve these problems, the teacher can choose to have students utilize that strategy while they work.

Standard Algorithm Addition and Subtraction

Created by
MsPitruzzello
This product is a scaffolded way to practice the standard algorithm for addition and subtraction. Each problem is placed in a grid to help students line up the place values and properly set up the digits. There is borrowing and re-grouping in every problem. The place values of the numbers go up to the ten thousands place. This is practice for 4th grade standards, but can be used as enrichment for 3rd grade or review for older grades.
