How 1st Grade Number and Operations Printable Resources Support Long-Term Math Success
First graders develop their number sense by connecting their basic counting skills with the concepts of tens and ones.

The worksheet progresses from concrete manipulatives to pictorial representations before moving to abstract numbers. Each problem includes space for students to show their work using place value charts or number lines. The answer keys contain detailed step-by-step solutions that demonstrate the complete mathematical process for solving each problem.
