These math readers are fun to use and help students understand word problems. I created the math readers series to help the 1st graders in my intervention math group see the start, change and result in Join and Separate word problems. What I found was that these readers are great to use with all Kinder and 1st grade students!

I loved using the readers in a small group setting, having students read along with me and then act out the problem using a work mat. More advanced students can use the ten frames and ten frame recording pages as well. Once students understand how to use the readers, they are perfect to use at a guided math station.

This set of math readers is an excellent tool for tutoring as well!

Set 5 includes Separate Problems with the Result Unknown
