Addition Word Problem Task Cards and Draw to Solve

This beginning addition word problem resource helps students learn how to solve simple addition story problems within 10. It encourages learners to model their thinking through drawing, writing equations, and connecting problems to mathematical representations.

This set includes 18 word problem task cards that allow students to draw their thinking and write a matching equation. Also included are 18 addition equations within 10 that correspond to the word problems, which students can use to match with task cards, draw to solve, or create their own word problems.

In addition, the resource includes 18 worksheets featuring a word problem, a drawing space for solving, and an addition equation template where students can write the equation that matches the story problem.

This versatile resource works well for whole-group instruction, math centers, independent practice, exit tickets, and it’s easy to leave for a substitute or guest teacher.
