What's on this sheet

Every question is a complete part-whole relationship rather than two numbers put side by side. Every missing part is positive, every equation adds exactly to its shown target, and a six-question page is balanced across the useful landmark wholes available at the selected level. This keeps make-five and make-ten practice visible even when bonds to twenty introduce more possible combinations.

Why this sheet works

Each bond has its whole drawn beside it as a group of themed pictures that a young child can touch and count — twenty as two rows of ten. The child counts on from the part that is shown and fills the one blank to complete the whole.
