These provide students the opportunity to create lists of equations that equal a given number and then turn those into a math story problem and a written short story (which is a nice writing connection). Each week is broken down into day sections so students can do just one part at a time.
Having purchased the multi-level bundle means I can differentiate for my students as needed while providing the same ultimate format for everyone.
