Nonverbal Adder/Subtracter

A child can add and subtract very small collections nonverbally. A child can show the solution to simple addition/subtraction problems. For example, if you have 3 buttons and take 1 away, a child can show how many remain by laying out 2 buttons.

Small Number Adder/Subtracter

A child can use objects to count all for problems up to 3 + 2. If you say, "You have 1 block and I have 2. How many blocks do we have in all?" then the child will count the objects, "1,2,3. We have 3 blocks!"

Find Result Adder/Subtracter

Addition: A child can find sums for joining (you have 2 blocks and get 2 more, how many blocks do you have in all?) and part-part-whole problems (there are 3 red balls and 4 green balls, how many balls in all?) using direct modeling or counting all with objects.
Subtraction: A child can solve take away problems by separating with objects. "You have 5 blocks and give 2 to Sarah. How many do you have left?" The child counts 5 blocks, then take away 2 and counts the remaining 3.

Find Result Adder/Subtracter

Addition: A child can find the missing addend (4 + _ = 7) by adding on objects. When given 4 blocks and asked, " How many more do you need to have 7?" Child counts the 4 blocks and then continues to count until they have 7 blocks. Then the child recounts the new blocks to find out that they needed 3 more to have 7 blocks.
Subtraction: Compares by matching in simple situations. When there are 6 students and 4 blocks and you ask, "If we give 1 block to each student, how many students won't get a block?" Child counts out 6 students and then matches 4 blocks to 4 of them, then counts the 2 students that have no block.
