Ten More Ten Less Worksheet – 1st Grade Addition & Base 10 Practice

Looking for simple, effective addition practice for first grade? The Ten More Ten Less Worksheet is a ready-to-print math resource that students can complete on their own after a short introduction.

Learning objective: Students will review addition, practice it in context, and show what they know in a way that is easy for the teacher to check.

Why it works: Short, focused practice is one of the best ways to help first grade students remember a new skill. Clear directions mean students can get started quickly, and the simple format makes it easy for you to spot who needs more help.

• Clear, student-friendly directions

• Answer key (1 page)

How it's organized: The page opens with these directions: "Write the number that is ten less and the number that is ten more than the middle number." Students then complete the practice items in order and check their work before turning it in.

Grade level: Designed for first grade students. It also works well for kindergarten and second grade students who need extra practice or a fresh review.

How to use it: It works well for whole-class lessons, small groups, early finishers, homework, review days, intervention time, and sub tubs.

Answer key: An answer key is included, so you can check work quickly or let students self-correct.
