About this worksheet
Four word problems in framed panels, each with a bright picture beside it: a red balloon for Ana’s 4 and 5 more, an orange fish for the 7 Ben sees and the 6 that swim by, a pink flower for Lily’s 8 and 4, and a blue toy car for Sam’s 3 and 8. Every panel ends with a blank number sentence. Sums reach 13.
This is the gentler of our two first grade word problem sheets. The picture tells a child what the story is about before they have decoded a single word, which keeps a shaky reader in the math rather than stuck on the page. Once these feel easy, the plain text version asks for the same thinking with no picture to lean on.
What students will practice
- Read a word problem and find the numbers
- Write an addition sentence to match the story
- Use a picture as a cue for what is happening
