About this resource

Description

Even and odd is one of the first number patterns a child can see with their own eyes. Line objects up in pairs: if every object has a partner, the number is even, and if one is left over, the number is odd. This Make it Even Worksheet builds that idea from the counting up, so a student learns to test a number instead of trying to remember a list of which ones are even.

This 2nd grade even and odd worksheet has two parts and takes about ten minutes. In the first part, six cards each hold a group of shapes. Students count the shapes, decide whether the total is even or odd, and fill in the bubble for their answer. The groups are drawn five to a row, so there is no shortcut — a student has to actually count or pair the shapes to know. In the second part, four even numbers are each written as the sum of two equal numbers, which is the other half of the same idea: a number is even exactly when it splits into two equal groups.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • 6 counting cards with even or odd bubbles
  • 4 equal-addend equations to complete

Three things make this Make it Even Worksheet worth a spot in your math block. First, it teaches even and odd as something a child can check, not a fact to memorize, which is what makes the idea stick into third grade. Second, counting real groups keeps the skill tied to objects, the way the standard describes it. Third, the equal-addend section quietly lays the groundwork for doubles facts and, later, for division by two.

Teachers and parents can practice this skill almost anywhere. Hand a child a small pile of buttons, blocks, or crackers and ask them to pair everything up and say whether the pile is even. Count steps by twos on the way to the car. Take turns rolling two dice, adding them, and calling out even or odd for a point. At the kitchen table, ask whether a snack can be shared fairly between two people — that is the same question this page asks, with a different wrapper.
