Ask a six-year-old how to make 8, and the first answer is often « seven and one, » followed by a long pause. Seeing that a number can be built in several ways takes time. This 1st grade make a number addition worksheet works on exactly that idea. Eight colored boxes each ask a question, such as « How do you make 4? » Under each question, four sums wait, and only one of them gives the target. Your child works out each sum, then marks the one that fits. The targets run from 1 to 10, and the first box shows a worked example with its tick. A second page gives the answer key.
