The Real Problem of the Week

Make sure your class stays up with the times using this series of math newsletters. Including word problems that cover topics ranging from consumer math and symmetry to graphing and probability, these worksheets are a fun way to...

Six questions make up a mixed practice worksheet. Scholars use their knowledge of addition, subtraction, multiplication, money, perimeter, ounces, and pounds to solve word problems with numbers up to 66,000.

In this problem solving worksheet, students solve word problems. Students determine how to solve four word problems, solve them, and show their steps.

Solving word problems requires reading comprehension and math computation. Through an interactive slideshow presentation, fourth graders observe and follow each step toward solve multiplication and division word problems. 

Sal uses the formula for perimeter to show how the variables can be moved around to solve a problem. He demonstrates a few different ways to do this.

Learners solve eight short answer algebra word problems. They write and solve systems of equations in two or three variables given a word problem about integers, perimeter, consecutive numbers, etc.

For most people, solving word problems is not that easy. But Sal makes it look simple! Follow along as he unpacks this complicated word problem. He even demonstrates how to the answer. Excellent!

Mix it up in math class! The video provides an equation hint to be able to setup mixture problems. Two problems are provided as examples on how to use the equation in order to solve mixture type word problems. 

Congratulations, you've just hit the word problem jackpot! Covering an incredible range of topics from integers and fractions, to percents, geometry, and much more, this collection of worksheets will keep young mathematicians busy...
