Addition flashcards pack 1

Pack 1 contains simple addition cards without answers. These cards can be filled in with the teacher or given to students after they have learned the basic math skills they need.

Before kids start to learn addition for the first time, it’s always a good idea to warm them up with some number recognition and maybe a number song. Remember to take it slow, especially if your students are in preschool or kindergarten.

Encourage children to use the method that they are most comfortable with and encourage them to use their fingers if they are just starting out. You can help your student by toning down your own skills and using your own fingers to demonstrate. It may be useful to use objects as counters first.

After laminating the flashcards, you can write answers directly onto the the card with a marker pen. This means that the cards can be presented on the whiteboard or can be given to the student!
