A short story with questions, add and subtract to 20 and missing numbers. A free first grade skills sampler. Part of our first grade skills addition collection.

How do I use this resource?

Use it as a quick check of where a new first grader stands in the first weeks of school, or as a weekend packet at home. Read the Pip story aloud once, then let your child reread it alone before answering. On the train page, have them point and count each car out loud so a skipped number is easy to hear. Stapling the three pages into a mini booklet makes it feel like a real workbook.

Can I use the First Grade Skills Taster Pack at home and in the classroom?

⌄

Yes. We made it for 1st Grade addition, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

How many 1st Grade first grade skills resources are there?

⌄

1 printable resource, free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

What age are first grade skills resources for?

⌄

These are written for 1st Grade students, roughly ages 6-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Can I use these first grade skills resources for homeschool?

⌄

Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 1st Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
