Lesson Overview

About this worksheet

This worksheet turns addition and subtraction facts within 20 into a picture. Every square in the grid holds a problem, and the answer decides the color of that square. Some squares add and some subtract, so the grid is not a page of one operation. Each color goes with two answers. The grid mixes 65 different facts. When all 72 squares are colored, the picture shows a turkey with its tail feathers spread out in a fan, so a student can see for themselves whether the work went right.

Section A fills page 1 with the grid and its color key. Section B on page 2 asks for 12 missing numbers, a different form of the same kind of facts, and Section C has 3 Thanksgiving story problems to solve with a drawing or numbers. Page 3 is the answer key: the finished picture beside the color key.

It comes in two editions: a full-color PDF and a low-ink black-and-white PDF for everyday copying. In the black-and-white key every square also shows the first letter of its color.

How to Use This Lesson

Color each box in the color key first, or read the key together.

Solve every problem in the grid, working across one row at a time.

Color each square with the color its answer points to in the key.

Finish Sections B and C, then check every section against page 3.
