Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the Math Word Problem Generator.
Is this generator aligned with Canadian mathematics curricula?
Yes! All problems use metric units (centimetres, kilometres, grams, litres), Canadian dollar currency ($), and culturally relevant Canadian references. Standards are aligned with Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, and other provincial curricula.
How does differentiated instruction work?
Teachers select from three tiers: Support (gentle scaffolding, simpler numbers, explicit clues), Core Practice (standard on-grade level expectations), and Challenge (multi-step operations, extraneous information, and higher-order reasoning).
Does it include complete teacher answer keys?
Yes. Every single generated problem comes with an in-depth teacher answer key showing step-by-step calculations, equations, final answers, and helpful teaching tips to address common student errors.
What grade levels are supported?
The generator covers Kindergarten through Grade 9, automatically adjusting reading level, numerical values, and problem complexity based on the selected grade.
Can I export or print problems for worksheets?
Yes. You can copy the generated text directly, print clean student worksheets without answer keys, or export to Google Docs and PDF for classroom distribution.
