- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Leaf minus Acorn equals 5, Acorn plus Acorn equals 8.
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: Leaf and Acorn.
Leaf - Acorn = 5, Acorn + Acorn = 8.
Use one sheet as a quick check before a unit and a second afterwards to see what has shifted.
