- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Flamingo plus Toucan minus Peacock equals 10, Flamingo plus Peacock equals 7, Peacock minus 1 equals 2.
Three pictures hold hidden numbers, so one value found leads to the next. 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: Flamingo, Peacock and Toucan.
Flamingo + Toucan - Peacock = 10, Flamingo + Peacock = 7, Peacock - 1 = 2.
