About this worksheet
Each question is an addition fact within 10, like 6 + 1, with a stack of cubes for each number. The child counts both stacks and writes how many cubes there are in all.
Stacks show a sum as one tower getting taller. Some questions add 0, shown as an empty square, which helps a child see that adding nothing changes nothing.
A worked example
3 + 4 = ?
- Count the cubes in the first stack: 3.
- Count the cubes in the second stack: 4.
- Count on from 3 for the second stack: 4, 5, 6, 7.
- Write 7 in the box.
Answer: 3 + 4 = 7
The common mistake
What it looks like: Losing count partway up a tall stack, such as the 7 in 2 + 7 or the 10 in 10 + 0.
Why it happens: The cubes in a tall stack are small and close together, so it is easy to count one twice or skip one.
How to fix it: Touch each cube with the pencil tip as you count, bottom to top. The number printed above the stack is there to check the count against.
