Simplicity

This math packet is a fantastic way to help your students master varying types of math word problems! It is Common Core aligned and can be used for either Cognitively Guided Instruction, Assessments, or Direct Instruction lessons. One problem per page to leave plenty of room for students' drawings to represent their thinking.

40 Addition and Subtraction problems (20 of each) Common Core aligned pages that address the standards found in the Operations & Algebraic Thinking portion of the First Grade Curriculum. Also a great homeschooling & homework resource! May also be used for struggling second graders who need more targeted instruction! Students solve for the unknown variable and either circle or color in the correct choice. Students add and subtract within 20.

Students will learn to compose numbers from 10-20 by circling groups of ten and some further ones. Kinder students can simply write the total amount in the box at the top corner. First grade students or advanced kinder students can write out the whole equation represented (10+3=13, 17=10+7, ..). Each page will represent one number between 10-20. You can have students mark picture objects with a pencil as they are counting to teach them how to be more accurate when counting groups of items. Stud

Pre-K or Kindergarten Number Sense practice! Montessori inspired activity. Just print, laminate, and cut out cards. Use mini pumpkin erasers or any other items to count with for students to place under each of the numbered cards with this activity. I purchased mine at my local Target in the dollar section or you can buy them through the Oriental Trading Company. Students remain quite focused in this 15-20 minute individual activity! Great fall inspired activity!
