Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practises the effect of removing one as well as adding one — 5 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core K.CC.C.6: Look at two groups and say which has more, fewer, or the same. The instruction to pupils is “How many would there be with one fewer?”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.CC.C.6 — K.CC.C.6, in the Counting & Cardinality domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “Identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to the number of objects in another group.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
One More, One Fewer is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on K.CC.C.6, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 5 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 versions, of which 22 ask genuinely different questions — this skill does not have 25 distinct questions to give, so the rest reorder them and no two pupils still share a paper. Set 1 downloads all 25 as one PDF.
Yes. One More, One Fewer, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
