- Question 1: Find what each picture equals using these equations: Tortoise plus Cobra minus Frog equals 7, Tortoise plus Frog equals 10, Frog plus Frog plus 7 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: Cobra, Frog and Tortoise.
Tortoise + Cobra - Frog = 7, Tortoise + Frog = 10, Frog + Frog + 7 = 11.
Send it home once the method has been taught in class, so families meet the same approach.
