Point and Add

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is an educational resource for teaching addition using extended number lines. Each number line on the worksheet ranges from 0 to 15, with specific addition problems like “5+6”, “7+5”, and “8+7” presented for students to solve. The worksheet provides a clear visual representation of each problem, allowing students to count along the number line to find the sum. Spaces are provided next to each problem where students can write the answer after performing the addition operation on the number line.

The objective of this worksheet is to help students understand and practice the concept of addition beyond the basic 0 to 10 range, extending up to 15. It aims to familiarize students with larger numbers while still using the visual and interactive learning aid of a number line. By incrementally counting along the number line to add numbers, students can strengthen their understanding of sequential number order and addition patterns. This method of visual learning aids in the development of a more intuitive sense of number relationships and arithmetic operations.
