Rescue 10 to Add

Save 10 from a sea of numbers with this first-grade addition worksheet! To solve each addition sentence, students will need to circle the two numbers that make 10. Then, learners will add the third number to find the sum.

This worksheet will help young mathematicians build number sense and strengthen mental math skills as they practice making 10. Making a 10 can help learners add numbers more efficiently and ease students into working with two-digit addends. By focusing on sums within 20, students can also practice fact fluency and prepare to work with larger numbers.
