Solve addition problems in this 2-page Counting On Addition Worksheet.
This worksheet is best used for independent practise as part of your addition strategies lesson. Students will shade in circles or use a number line to visualise adding numbers, applying the “counting on” addition strategy.
Counting On Addition Worksheet Scaffolding and Extension Tips
In addition to individual student work time, use this counting on addition strategy worksheet as a(n) activity for your:
- Maths station/centre
- Post-lesson review exit ticket
- Whole-class review activity (via smartboard)
Got fast finishers? Challenge students who grasp the concept by creating 1-2 addition problems of their own and solve them using either a number line or shading circle to show they can count on. They could also interpret the addition sentences by drawing pictures of base tens. For a further extension, challenge students to work on more problems that require regrouping. (There are a few on the second page of this worksheet.)
Support struggling students by using this worksheet as an intervention activity or with your guided math group. Use counters to help with the first page and base ten blocks/cubes to help with the second page.
