Jack-o'-Lantern Match-Up: Add and Subtract Within 20

In this worksheet, students will carve jack-o’lanterns by solving addition and subtraction equations! Learners will cut out each of the eight happy jack-o’-lanterns at the bottom of the page. Then, students must solve each equation and paste down the jack-o’-lantern with the matching answer to “carve” the pumpkin.

Created for first and second graders, this hands-on activity will keep students engaged as they build fact fluency. Reviewing addition and subtraction facts within 20 will lay the groundwork for working with larger numbers within 100, a fundamental skillset for young mathematicians.

For another Halloween-themed math activity, try Halloween Find, Count, and Solve. Students can complete Spot the Impostors! True or False Equations Within 20 and Fluency Forest: Add and Subtract Within 20 for more fluency practice.
