Math Word Problem Project

CCSS.Math.Content.1.OA.A.1Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

DIRECTIONS: -Use a 22in. X 28in. poster. -Write your name on the back of the poster. -Draw a line vertically in the center. Draw another line horizontally in the center. After drawing your lines, you will have four rectangles. You will write a word problem in each rectangle. Two word problems will be addition, and two word problems will be subtraction. -Your word problems should have two statements and one question. For example:
Bob had 8 apples. He ate two apples. How many apples does Bob have now? -Use

pictures, drawings, or objects to illustrate the word problem. Be creative. Make sure whatever you use is glued on securely. -Write the answers to the word problem on the back of the poster. -The word problem should be legible and in your own handwriting. -All word in the word problem should be spelled correctly. Example of how the front of your poster should look:
Stephen has 9 toy cars. Mason has 3 toy cars. How many toy cars do they have altogether?
TraMajh has 8 balls. Conner has 4 balls. How many more balls does TraMajh have than Conner?

Stephens cars: Masons cars:

TraMajhs balls: Conners balls:

Destinee ate 6 candies on Monday. She ate 4 candies on Tuesday. How many candies did she eat altogether? Monday: Tuesday:
