Addition Word Problems Up to 20

Turn everyday stories into number sentences and solve addition word problems with sums up to 20 using pictures, number lines, and simple steps.


What You'll Learn

Identify the numbers and the action in a story to decide that addition is needed.
Underline clue words like "in all," "altogether," and "total" to spot addition problems.
Draw a quick picture or bar model to represent the two groups being combined.
Write a number sentence such as \( 7 + 5 = 12 \) before solving.
Check that the answer is reasonable and stays within 20 for these problems.
Use a number line or counting on as a backup strategy when a sum is hard to picture.

What You'll Practice

1

Reading word problems about shopping, toys, and everyday items

2

Finding totals by adding two or more numbers up to 20

3

Solving problems with pictures and visual aids

Why This Matters
