Description
These Christmas numberless addition and subtraction word problems for sums to 10 will do wonders to boost your kindergarten or first grade students’ ability to solve word problems!
Numberless word problems help students to focus on the action and context of an addition or subtraction story problem rather than being “number pluckers”!
These digital word problems can easily be projected and used in the classroom OR share your screen and use them for distance learning.
The problems in this set are EXTREMELY similar to the problems in the Addition and Subtraction sums to 20 set. This makes differentiation simple if you are using both sets with your learners!

- The third slide adds in the rest of the numeric information… but something is missing.
- The fourth and final slide in each problem adds in the question the students will be solving.
