These sets of word problems are slightly more challenging than the Word Problems I sets. The student will need to use addition and subtraction to solve, but some problems use a little bit larger numbers and may require more steps. Multiplication is not required, but may be used for some if the student feels comfortable doing so.
These are recommended mainly for second grade and also first grade.
