- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Basketball plus 6 minus Biking equals 5, Biking plus 7 equals 9.
Two pictures stand for two hidden numbers, and the child works out both. Numbers and results here stay within ten. Equations add and subtract, so the child reads each sign. A picture keeps one value throughout, so a value found carries onward. Pictures on this sheet: Basketball and Biking.
Basketball + 6 - Biking = 5, Biking + 7 = 9.
Two children can sit side by side, take a problem each, and compare how they reached the number.
