Story problems that never repeat

Word problems are where arithmetic meets reading — the core applied-math skill of 1st and 2nd grade. Every problem here is a fresh story: joining, taking away, comparing, and how-many-more situations with new names, objects, and numbers each time, plus a work box for drawings or number sentences.

Choose addition, subtraction, or mixed, cap the numbers at 10, 20, or 100, and steer any problem to the exact numbers you want to practice. The answer key writes each answer on the line in green.
