Questions parents & teachers ask

What is a fact family?

A fact family is a group of facts built from the same three numbers. The 3, 4 and 7 family gives four facts: 3 + 4 = 7, 4 + 3 = 7, 7 − 3 = 4 and 7 − 4 = 3. An addition–subtraction fact family ties three numbers together: two parts and their whole. From 3, 4 and 7 you get 3 + 4 = 7, 4 + 3 = 7, 7 − 3 = 4 and 7 − 4 = 3 — proof that subtraction just undoes addition.

What grade are addition & subtraction fact families for?

These are usually taught in Grade 1 & Grade 2. Each worksheet shows the number triangle and leaves the four facts blank, so kids see how + and − undo each other — not just memorise them.
