About this worksheet
Six short story problems about stickers, muffins, marbles, a bus and a park, all within 100, with space in each box to show the work. Most are take away stories, one compares how many pages two children read, and one asks how many more marbles are needed to fill a jar.
The compare and how many more problems are the ones to watch. Neither has anything being taken away, so a child has to work out that subtraction is the tool. Talking through those two out loud is time well spent.
