Students often struggle to connect math with the real world. Word problems—a combination of words, numbers, and mathematical operations—can be a perfect vehicle to take abstract numbers off the page.

Students with learning disabilities and other challenges may find word problems difficult even when they know the math, so building up their confidence is key.
