About this resource
Description
Knowing every pair of numbers that adds up to ten is one of the most useful facts a first grader can learn. This totals to ten worksheet helps students see the ten partners in a chart and then recall them without help. When children know that 3 and 7 make 10, or that 6 and 4 make 10, adding and subtracting with larger numbers becomes much faster.
How to Use This Worksheet
Students start with a staircase chart. Each row shows ten squares, with some dark and some light. They count the light squares to find the missing partner and write it in the box. In the second part, the chart is gone. Students solve six number sentences on their own, with the missing number in different places, including problems written as 10 = 4 + __. Use this making ten worksheet for practice in class, in a math center, or as homework.
What’s Included
- A staircase partner chart with nine number sentences that add to 10
- Six make-ten problems with the missing number in different spots
- An answer key for quick checking
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, the chart lets students see that the two parts always fill the same ten squares. Second, moving the blank to different places builds a real understanding of the equal sign. Third, quick recall of the ten partners prepares students for mental math, the make-a-ten strategy, and addition within 20.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting, have students hold up ten fingers and fold some down to show a partner pair. After the totals to ten worksheet is done, play a quick game where you say a number and students call out its partner. You can also have students color their own staircase chart or use counters to check each answer.
