- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Squid minus Squid plus Dolphin equals 4, Squid plus Squid equals 12.
Two pictures stand for two hidden numbers, and the child works out both. 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: Dolphin and Squid.
Squid - Squid + Dolphin = 4, Squid + Squid = 12.
Slot it into a weekly math rotation, where one group works on this while another meets the teacher.
