What's on the worksheet
Solve the problem in each square. Color by the code.
Solve. Write the answer.
Write an addition problem that equals 9. ★
Skills practiced
Every square holds a small addition problem with a sum from 4 to 9. Your child solves it, finds the sum in the color code, and colors the square. As more squares fill in, a house appears, so your child can see whether the answers make sense. Below the picture are three more sums and an open question: write an addition that equals a given number. This mix builds fluency with facts within 10, which kindergarten classrooms work on all year, and shows that one number can be made in more than one way.
Common Core K.OA.A.2: Solving simple story problems that add or take away, up to 10
Common Core K.OA.A.3: Breaking a number up to 10 into two parts in different ways
Read the color key at the top together: which color goes with each number or letter.
Your child solves the problem, counts the dots, or reads the letter in each square and colors it the matching color.
Squares marked leave white stay white.
The picture that appears shows right away if the work is correct.
Tips for parents and teachers
Keep 10 small objects nearby, such as counters, buttons, or cereal pieces, so your child can build each problem instead of guessing. Encourage counting on: start at the bigger number and count up the smaller one. If a square ends up the wrong color, solve that problem together with objects; usually the error is a skipped or double-counted item, not a wrong idea.
Make it easier or harder
Easier: Solve the first row together out loud, or let your child use fingers and a number line from 0 to 10 written at the top of the page.
Harder: Time one row of squares and try to beat it on a second copy, or ask your child to write two different additions for each color in the code.
