The reproducible workbook encourages students to learn a number of different strategies to find an answer to addition problems.
> Count on strategy > Number pattern strategy > Combination of 2 numbers to make up the sum > Turn around strategy > Strategy of doubles and near doubles The workbook activities start with adding on 1, then continue to add on 2, then 3, then 4 and 5. All strategies are used, however counting on strategy based on number pattern strategy is used preferably. The worksheets are dealing with real life addition problems; eg. What's your score, Cookie jars, Savings, Shopping, House points in a Sports Carnival etc. This reproducible workbook has been successfully used by special education teachers, first graders and home schoolers.
