About this resource
Description
Every number has many names. Seven can be 4 + 3, 3 + 4, 2 + 5 or 6 + 1, and kindergarten students who see this start to understand how numbers break apart and come back together. This finding other names worksheet gives young learners a hands-on way to practice decomposing numbers within 10 and writing each pair as an addition equation.
Students add each of the twelve problems in the number box and write it under the number it names: 5, 6 or 7. Some problems share the same first number and some are turnaround facts, so children must really add each one instead of guessing. In the second part, four missing-part equations are all other names for 8, and students fill in the box to make each one true. Use this kindergarten addition worksheet as morning work, a math center, small-group practice or homework.
What’s Included
- A one-page finding other names worksheet with a number box of twelve addition problems
- A three-column chart for sorting the names for 5, 6 and 7
- Four missing-part equations that each make 8
- A complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it builds number sense by showing that one number can be written many ways. Second, the sorting task gives repeated addition practice within 10, which grows fact fluency. Third, the missing-part equations connect decomposing to early algebraic thinking, a key kindergarten addition skill that prepares students for first grade.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting, have children build each number with counters or blocks and split the pile into two parts. Ask them to say the names out loud, such as “five and one make six.” After the sheet, challenge students to find one more name for 8 that is not on the page, or play a quick game where you call out a number and they hold up fingers to show two parts.
