About This Product

This Summer Olympic Themed Mixed Operation Word Problems Task Cards is a set of word problems centered around the Olympics and various sports competed in the summer Olympic games.

There are 16 addition/subtraction problems and 12 multiplication/division problems.
Some of the problems presented are single step, some are multi-step.

The addition/subtraction problems and the multiplication/division problems are presented one in each page, so that these can be printed and laminated and reused. A sheet for students to record their answers is included. as well as an answer sheet for each of the problems. They are also presented four to a page (task card size) to print and laminate and use in a scoot or as a group activity or station. It is recommended that you print them on card stock and laminate them to keep them strong and usable for years to come.

This resource was designed for 3rd, 4th, and/or 5th graders. Though it could be used for any student who needs to practice solving word problems with addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.


There are large versions for a classroom hunt or display, small task-card size versions (with an answer sheet for scoots), and a digital Google Slides version for paper-less or virtual classrooms. The small task-card size versions may be used in math centers for students to practice these skills independently or in small groups. Additionally, these could be used as guides for them to create their own word problems.

An answer key is provided with this product.

They are written based on the VA Math SOL 3.3 (addition and subtraction) and VA Math SOL 3.4 (multiplication and division) but work for any grade level doing mixed operation word problems.
