Use the presentation as a whole class activity and go through suggested examples of how students can work through two step problems. Students can even work through one of the worksheet activities displayed on the PowerPoint and then share their solutions.
Worksheet activities
If you are looking to introduce your students to two-step addition and subtraction problems then these worksheets are suitable just to ease the students in. There are no trick word problems. There is an opportunity for students to use their own methods of solving the questions and share with the class.
Other Suggested Uses
You can use the activity sheets in small group work and one-to-one teaching. You can use manipulatives to explain the problem and highlight what needs to be written down to solve the two-step equations. For example, Activity 35: use real paper to solve how many sheets of paper are left in the school secretary’s printer.
Early Finishers
Use the worksheets as an extension to your lesson on two-step math problems. If you have students that work very quickly then place these worksheet activities in the extra work tray for them to access. They can self-check with the answer sheets/cards.
Challenge: If you have good readers in your kinder class and 1st grade, then they should be able to work through the problems.

This resource is about comparing two lengths using a strip of paper cut to the same height of each child in the class.
Lesson plan and PowerPoint Presentation included - can be adapted.
The children will enjoy this activity. It is a precursor to other types of measurements children will be learning later on in maths.
The only preparation needed is cutting strips of paper (colour paper if preferred) not too thin to the height of each child to carry out the activity.
Spring-themed resource which is also ideal for St David’s Day activity.
A cut and paste puzzle activity counting 1 to 5.
You can prepare the activity by cutting out the puzzles and having the children sort through to count and match the number of daffodils to the correct number or for the more able number words and number.
Alternatively, to improve their fine motor skills, place the sheets of paper on their tables and get the children to cut out and match the two sides of the puzzles. Once they are matched, they can stick them in their workbooks.

This resource relates to onset and rime word families.
Aimed at: Reception Class/KS1, SEN and ESL/EFL Students.
<strong>Product Content:</strong>
Onset and Rime PowerPoint Presentation with animation
Recording worksheet
Hexagon shape card – laminate and cut out
Onset card divided into three sections for onset and rime activities - laminate
This presentation is an introduction to onset and rime presented in a way that children understand the concept and consolidate their knowledge by carrying out practical activities and recording their work on a worksheet or into their workbooks.
I find this resource very useful, especially in smaller group settings.
There are so many onset and rime word families. I have used the easier ones in the presentation.
To make this resource flexible and ‘hands-on’, I have made an onset card which you can laminate.
Once I laminated the card, I dabbed the letters with a dry erase pen on the onsets I wanted children to use to make onset and rime families. So there is an opportunity to differentiate the tasks.
I have also made a hexagon shape rime card. Just laminate and write the rime you want the children to use together with the Onset Card.
You can differentiate the activities by choosing the rimes you want the more advance groups to use and easier rimes for the groups that find blending onset and rime challenging.
Dabbing the onsets you want some children to use with the rimes makes it easier for them to build word families.
Hope you enjoy using this resource.
Thank you for your interest:-)
