Nine problems, none of them crossing 10 — 1 + 1 and 7 + 3 are typical. This is consolidation of adding rather than new ground. Filed under Grade 1, though everything here stays within 10 and nothing crosses it — most teachers will reach for it in Kindergarten or Year 1, or in Grade 1 as review.
The nine problems on this sheet: 7 + 3, 1 + 4, 5 + 3, 1 + 3, 1 + 2, 1 + 1, 4 + 5, 2 + 4, 6 + 1.
A wrong answer breaks the picture, so a child sees the mistake straight away and can fix it without waiting for an adult. It shows where they went wrong, not why. Every sheet uses the same nine answers, 2 to 10. Some children will match by piece shape instead of calculating — asking them to read two facts aloud settles it.
Best suited to a math center or station rotation, where a child needs to finish something without an adult and without anyone marking it. A complete picture is a five-metre glance-check across the room.
The answer key lists all nine results, which is the quickest way to check the level before printing. The completed picture shows a activities scene.
