From number lines, to number bonds, to number monsters, this fab lift-the-flap book is an engaging way to help children to get to grips with the basics of adding and subtracting.
Divided into eight sections, Lift-the-flap Adding and Subtracting starts from the basics of adding and subtracting small numbers, to tips and tricks to make sums easier, such as using a number line, and learning your number bonds.
