Multi-Step Global Art Addition

This worksheet presents multi-step addition word problems centered around artistic traditions from different countries. Students must read each detailed scenario carefully, identify all quantities involved, and compute totals across two or more steps. The problems require combining several addends, strengthening higher-level arithmetic fluency and multi-step reasoning. Because each item includes cultural or global content-such as lanterns, sugar skulls, textiles, paintings, carvings, and calligraphy-students also build background knowledge and engagement while solving math tasks. This worksheet is excellent for developing stamina with complex problem solving, reinforcing the ability to extract key information, sequence steps, and compute accurately.
