This medium-level sheet focuses on subtraction within 20 using winter scenarios. Part A has nine fill-in-the-blank subtraction problems involving snowballs, ornaments falling off trees, and breaking icicles, mixing direct equations with take-away word problems. Part B is a matching activity that pairs four subtraction expressions like 10 - 4 and 15 - 8 with their answers. First graders practice careful counting backwards while connecting symbolic math to real winter situations.

Part A: Fill in the Blank
Solve each winter math problem. Write the answer on the line.
1. 12 snowballs - 5 snowballs = 7 snowballs.
2. A tree had 15 ornaments. 6 fell off. Now there are 9 ornaments.
3. 18 icicles - 9 icicles = 9 icicles.
4. You had 14 candy canes and gave away 8. You have 6 left.
5. There were 20 snowflakes. 11 melted. Now there are 9 snowflakes.
6. Which is more: 13 mittens or 9 mittens? 13 is more.
7. 16 lights - 7 lights = 9 lights.
8. A store had 11 sleds. 4 were sold. Now there are 7 sleds.
9. Which is less: 17 scarves or 12 scarves? 12 is less.
