Apple Math
Are you wondering about the skills covered in these handy, no prep, math addition coloring worksheets?
- Addition Within 10. Getting fluency adding these numbers is crucial as this is a building block for future math as students learn to carry numbers, do mental math, and more!
- Addition Number Bonds. Number bonds (which are taught in Singapore math) are also known as fact families. Number bonds are a way to understand or visually represent addition facts using a part-part-whole model. Teaching addition using number bonds helps with fact fluency, as kids become so familiar with them, they can recall facts almost instantly. If kids are familiar with each of these, moving to subtraction is no problem. They simply figure out which piece of the equation is missing (i.e. 5 – 3 = ? is no problem if a child knows 2+3 = 5).
For example, the number bonds of 5 would be 0+5, 1+4, 2+3, 3+2, 4+1 and 5+0.
- Decomposing numbers using number bonds and learning the facts not only prepare kids for subtraction, but also develops their number sense. This will prepare them for more challenging math down the road.
Apple Addition
This pack of apple addition worksheets includes one page for each of the numbers from 2-10. On each page, kids color all the apples in the tree with facts that are equal to the given number. For example, on the page where they are to look for facts equal to 2, they would color the 2+0, 0+2 and 1+1 apples. Seeing all the facts for a given number will help kids solidify their understanding and recognition of these number bonds.
And the fun apple theme is perfect for Fall, so this would be the perfect way to weave some math into your Fall festivities. For instance, you can use these coloring pages along with the story of Johnny Appleseed (featured on the pages). Or simply as a fun and unique way to practice and recognize number bonds.
