Worksheet Description

This worksheet is an addition activity designed to help students practice single-digit addition in a structured format. The sheet is divided into two columns, each column featuring chains of hexagonal cells connected vertically, with each cell containing a simple addition problem. The problems are color-coded by the number to be added, with sums to be written in the empty cells. There’s a space at the top for the student’s name, indicating it’s meant for individual work, likely in an educational environment.

The worksheet is teaching students to recognize patterns in addition by repeatedly adding the same single digit to different numbers. The color-coding system associated with each number being added helps students quickly identify and work through the problems associated with that specific number. This repetitive practice is designed to reinforce the student’s recall of basic addition facts and to increase their speed and accuracy in calculation. Moreover, the worksheet’s visual structure may aid in developing the student’s ability to organize their work and approach to problem-solving systematically.

You will complete these webs of sums by finding the sums that are already set in motion.
