Free printable make 10 addition strategy worksheets for first grade. Decompose an addend, bridge through 10, generate new problems, and print answers.
Grade 1 · 1.OA.C.6. Bridging through 10 turns a difficult fact into a known combination and one small addition. The visual boxes show how the second addend is decomposed.
Split the second addend to make 10 first, then add what remains. Use New problems to create another printable set while keeping the same activity and level.
Ask how much the first number needs to reach 10. That amount becomes one part of the second addend; the remaining part is added after 10 is made. Switch to Answer key to check the exact same pictures and numbers. Choose the worksheet, the answer key, or both in the print controls. The activity is free to print for home or classroom use and is designed to fit on one US Letter or A4 page.
Keep the first session short and let the child explain one answer in words. A correct explanation shows whether the picture, number, or model makes sense. Generate a new set for another day instead of repeating memorized positions.
