Sixteen facts within 20 written the column way: the top number, the sign and the bottom number lined up on the right, a line, and a box for the answer. The facts are the same size as on the other within 20 sheets; the new thing is the layout, which children need for two-digit adding and taking away in second grade. Answers on page 2.
