Hi math enthusiasts,


Raise your hand if you’ve ever said, “Wait… did you skip the parentheses?” 🙋‍♀️

Order of operations confusion is so real this time of year — students mix up the steps, forget to go left to right, or just completely blank on what PEMDAS even stands for.

That’s why I put together this FREE Order of Operations Survival Kit — a simple, ready-to-go resource to help your students get it right (without the groans).

What’s Inside:

✔️ A step-by-step anchor chart

✔️ Top 3 common PEMDAS mistakes (and how to fix them)

✔️ Practice problems with workspace

✔️ Answer key for fast grading

It’s perfect for:

  • Warm-ups or bell ringers
  • Small group intervention
  • Homework or review
  • Printing for student binders as a go-to guide
