Addition Sentence Match

Worksheet Description

This worksheet will help students learn addition facts that sum up to ten through a cut-and-paste activity. The sheet presents several addition equations, each with a sum of 10, next to empty squares where visual representations of the equations should be matched. At the bottom of the page, there are squares with different combinations of filled and empty circles, representing numbers that add up to ten. Students are expected to cut these out and paste them into the corresponding square next to the correct addition fact.

The worksheet teaches the concept of “making ten,” a foundational arithmetic skill that facilitates the understanding of number bonds and simple addition. Through this activity, students learn to visualize addition facts as quantities, enhancing their number sense. The cut-and-paste format adds a kinesthetic element to the learning process, engaging multiple senses to help solidify the mathematical concepts. The “How Did You Do?” self-assessment at the end allows students to reflect on their learning, reinforcing their understanding and confidence in solving the problems.
