These 1 more and 1 less cards are a fun way to help young learners secure sequencing, addition and subtraction of numbers to 50, which is essential for early math development. In line with the math curriculum delivered in schools, the 30 cards included in this download (pdf) show a picture representation of base ten, ten frames and bead materials, encouraging children to count the amount then identify 1 more and 1 less.

The cards are completely versatile and can be printed and laminated to use as lesson starters, math centers, small group activities and interventions. Children can write on them using a dry wipe pen before erasing and moving into another. Alternatively, you could print them on paper to use as a worksheet instead, to be glued into workbooks or place on your math working wall/bulletin board.

There are 30 coloured card templates included in the set, without any additional prep needed once they’ve been cut and laminated. Use them in your Year 1, First Grade or Homeschool environment to help secure knowledge and understanding.
