Make Ten to Add With Ten Frames #1

Learn a new addition strategy using ten frames in this math worksheet! Students are presented with five single-digit addition problems. To solve each one, learners must move dots on the ten frames to make a complete 10, then write a new addition sentence to reflect the model.

Created for first graders, this worksheet provides a visual way to add single-digit numbers. Using the ten frames, students will be able to see what it means to make 10 and how 10 can be decomposed into different number pairs. Ten frames are also a great way to sharpen learners’ subitizing skills.
