Worksheet Description

This worksheet is an educational resource designed to help students practice basic addition using a number line. The worksheet features a series of simple addition problems, such as “4 + 3”, “5 + 5”, and “2 + 3”. Above the problems, there is a single number line that ranges from 0 to 10. Students are instructed to use the number line to find the sums of the given problems and write the answers in the provided spaces.

The worksheet teaches students to use a number line as a tool for understanding and visualizing addition. By marking the position of the first number and counting forward to add the second number, students can see how two numbers combine to make a larger sum. This approach reinforces the concept of addition as a sequential process and helps develop a student’s ability to calculate sums quickly and accurately. It also serves as a foundation for more complex mathematical concepts by establishing a visual and practical understanding of how numbers relate to each other in addition.
