Addition sums blank Rainbow themed / B&W

What’s included?
x3 sets of blank addition sums, x1 black and white and x2 rainbow themed, portrait orientation, pdf format.

Resource layout
Size 40 ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font makes the number signs + = easy to read and the large boxes model a clear layout of the addition process to young learners.

The portrait format provides optimal space for each sum, a good sized box enables learners to place small objects and draw these to count and record the total amount. There is a line underneath each box on which to write the numbers.

This PDF has been designed to print and use as practical write-on resource, it could be laminated to enable reuse. This resource is also ideal to upload and use in on-line classrooms, such as Sherpa.

Recommendations
The simple lay out of each (blank) addition sum is an easy to use (and re-use!) resource. Numbers can be written on the sheet (and wiped off if laminated) either in the larger box or on the line underneath each box. Small objects can be placed in each box (I have successfully used small coloured matchsticks with this resource if these are not deemed a choking hazard for your little learner/s). Once the correct number of matchsticks/items have been counted out into the larger boxes (and the corresponding number has been written underneath) the matchsticks/objects can then be moved to the ‘total’ or ‘=’ box to find to whole number (when all matchsticks/objects are combined). The answer to the sum can then be recorded ‘in’ or ‘under’ the large box at the end of the sum (on the right side).

The black and white version is ideal for photocopying, the coloured version makes each separate sum clear plus I know how important colour can be for little learners!
