What this worksheet practices

How to use this worksheet

  1. 1

    Do "Make 10" before any addition sheet, not after. Number bonds to ten are what make first-grade addition fast, and children who learn them late end up counting on fingers for another year.

  2. 2

    For "Adding with Pictures", cover the answer box and ask your child to say the whole sentence out loud — "three and two make five". Saying it is what moves it into memory.

  3. 3

    Print "Counting by Tens" twice. It is the one sheet on this list worth repeating, because skip counting is the foundation of place value in 1st grade.

  4. 4

    Let them use physical objects. Buttons or pasta next to the sheet is not cheating at this age; the picture on the page is a stand-in for objects, and the objects work better.
