Fishing for Facts: Add and Subtract Within 10

Hook your kindergarten and first-grade students with a splash of math fun! This worksheet offers a playful way for young mathematicians to practice identifying true addition and subtraction equations within 10.

Students look at each fish and decide whether the math equation inside is true. If it is, they color the fish to "catch" it, turning fact checking into an engaging, hands-on adventure. The simple format makes it easy for early learners to think carefully about each equation and strengthen accuracy.

This activity is especially helpful because recognizing true and false equations builds essential number sense, strengthens fact fluency, and prepares students for more complex math concepts. It is a fun and effective way to boost early math confidence!
