Math Quest and Journeys. A few “story problems” were added to the bottom of the page but they weren’t problems to solve because they followed 40 questions on a particular procedure, and generally contained only two numbers. Students didn’t have to read the question, reason mathematically or think in order to arrive at a solution.
