- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Muffin minus Gingerbread Man equals 2, Toast plus Muffin plus Gingerbread Man equals 15, Muffin plus Muffin plus 3 equals 11.
Three pictures hold hidden numbers, so one value found leads to the next. Numbers and results here stay within twenty. 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: Muffin, Gingerbread Man and Toast.
Muffin - Gingerbread Man = 2, Toast + Muffin + Gingerbread Man = 15, Muffin + Muffin + 3 = 11.
Use one sheet as a quick check before a unit and a second afterwards to see what has shifted.
