About these worksheets
These worksheets use visual balance-scale models to introduce the concept of equality. Students determine what value keeps a scale balanced using addition and subtraction reasoning, building an intuitive understanding of equations before working with formal algebraic notation. These activities help younger students see the equals sign as meaning "the same amount on both sides."
Each worksheet has 8 problems that can be solved with addition and subtraction.
