About this resource
Description
Knowing the pairs of numbers that make 10 is one of the most useful facts a young mathematician can learn, and this structuring numbers partners to ten worksheet gives 1st grade students focused practice with those pairs. When children know that 3 and 7 or 8 and 2 are partners, adding and subtracting within 20 becomes much faster.
About This Worksheet
In this structuring numbers partners to ten worksheet, students work with number partners in two ways. In the first part, they draw a line from each number in the left column to the number in the right column that makes 10 with it. In the second part, they look at four boxes of numbers and circle the only two numbers in each box that add up to 10. Every box has exactly one pair, so students must check each choice carefully.
What’s Included
- One printable make ten worksheet with five matching problems and four find-the-pair boxes
- A complete answer key with every matching line drawn and every pair circled
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
Matching partners helps students remember the pairs that make 10 without counting on their fingers. Searching each box for the one correct pair builds number sense and careful checking. Practicing these pairs gives students a strong base for the make-a-ten strategy, which they will use all through 1st grade math and beyond, so this 1st grade make ten worksheet is a great fit for daily review.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this page as a warm-up, a math center, or a quick check after a lesson on making 10. Give students ten counters to prove each pair before they draw a line. Play a quick game where you call out a number and students call back its partner to make 10.
