Spin and Solve Word Problems
Engage students in Spin and Solve Word Problems! This interactive worksheet transforms math practice into a fun game. Students spin the spinners to generate numbers for a number sentence. Students then use their creativity to come up with their very own number stories to go along with the number sentence before solving the problem.
Learning goals
- We are learning to use strategies for adding small groups of numbers, e.g. visual displays or concrete materials.
- We are learning to use counting or subitising strategies for addition and subtraction in everyday role-play situations.
