Putting numbers together
Addition means putting together. Keeping sums within 10 lets kindergarteners build confidence and the key strategy of counting on from the larger number — the foundation for all later math facts.
How to use it
Encourage your child to start at the bigger number and count up using fingers or counters. Builds on picture addition and leads to subtraction within 10.
👩🏫 Teacher note
Encourage 'counting on' from the larger number (5 + 3: say five, then six, seven, eight). Fingers and counters are welcome.
🏠 Parent note
Start at the bigger number and count up using fingers, e.g. 6 + 2: 'six... seven, eight.'
Common Mistakes to Watch For
- Counting one of the numbers twice
- Losing track when counting on
Answer Key
