Worksheet Description

This worksheet features a circular puzzle designed to enhance students’ addition skills. The central circle of the wheel shows an addition equation, and surrounding it are segments containing single numbers.

It encourages students to recognize the pattern of adding a constant number to different single numbers, thereby reinforcing their basic addition skills. The activity helps students in developing quick mental arithmetic abilities and in understanding the relationship between numbers in an addition sequence. The self-assessment section at the bottom enables students to reflect on their performance and grasp the effectiveness of their learning process.

Add 7 to each of the other addends present on the wheel. Write their sum on the outer wheel.   Then write an equation that is found within each area in the blank circles.
