3 Domino Addends

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed with a domino-themed approach to teaching addition. It presents several domino tiles, each split into two sections with a varying number of dots. For each domino, students are directed to count the dots in each section, write the numbers in the provided small squares that follow an addition sign, and then calculate the total sum, recording it in the large square. The structured setup aids in visual learning and guides students through the steps of the addition process.

The worksheet teaches basic addition by using the visual and tactile elements of dominoes. It helps students practice counting dots, translating these into numerical values, and then performing the addition operation to find the sum. This type of exercise is beneficial for developing early arithmetic skills, as it encourages students to engage in counting and addition in a manner that is both familiar and enjoyable. Moreover, it promotes the understanding of numbers as representing quantities that can be combined, a foundational math concept.
