Add and Rewire

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is a math activity sheet that focuses on teaching regrouping through a series of two-digit addition problems. Each addition problem is displayed in a vertical format, which is conducive to learning how to carry over numbers from the ones to the tens place. At the bottom of the page is a black and white illustration of underwater sea life, including fish and a submarine, which provides a coloring activity for students after they complete the math exercises. This dual-function worksheet is designed to make learning addition with regrouping fun and interactive.

The worksheet’s purpose is to help students master the concept of regrouping in addition, which is a fundamental arithmetic skill. By working through these problems, students practice adding two-digit numbers and learn to carry over when the sum exceeds nine. This skill is crucial for their future mathematical education, laying the groundwork for more complex operations. The addition of a coloring activity serves as a creative reward, motivating students to complete the math problems and offering a relaxing break from their calculations.
