Trouble motivating the troops?

How to solve these puzzles: Grade 1 Math (plus & minus)
 
Parents can decide what the reward will be: candy or a sweet, a toy or a note, or maybe even a reward voucher for a special treat (maybe choosing a movie or staying up a half hour past bedtime.) The completed worksheet will reveal the location of the loot - just be sure to hide the prize for your code-breakers to find!
 
This worksheet set has 3 locations to find treasure:
 
behind the sofa
near the TV
under your pillow
 
Be sure you have these locations in your home so you can hide the treasure! If a location is not a convenient hiding spot, you can always leave a small note there directing the search elsewhere.
 
All worksheet sets come with instructions and answer keys.
