Addition with Easter — Kindergarten

Two little groups of eggs, bunnies and a basket sit on each row of this kindergarten sheet, joined by a plus sign, with the total left blank. The task is simple and self-checking: count one group, count the other, and write how many Easter things there are together. Five- and six-year-olds can do every line by pointing and counting, which means the sheet works for a whole class at once — nobody is stuck waiting until they can read an equation first.

Each row ends with one question: how many altogether. That quietly teaches cardinality — the last number you count names the size of the whole set. Linking the count to the total is exactly the understanding kindergartners are forming, and pictured Easter things keep it something they can point to and check for themselves.

Children who enjoy easter take to this one quickly, and it works just as well as a quiet morning task or a count-along on the board. When the set feels easy, count a different collection in addition with farm animals, or try addition with insects and bugs.
