What this worksheet teaches

• Understand that 4 + 7 gives the same total as 7 + 4.
• Begin recalling small addition facts from memory rather than recounting each time.
• Add two single-digit numbers within 20 accurately and confidently.
• Use 'counting on' from the larger number instead of counting both sets from one.

How to use this worksheet

Before starting, run through the pairs that make 10 out loud (1 and 9, 2 and 8, 3 and 7, 4 and 6, 5 and 5). Sums that cross 10, such as 7 + 5, are where Grade 1 students slow down most, and knowing these pairs is what makes those questions manageable.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. 7 + 4 = ______
2. 5 + 10 = ______

Frequently asked questions

Does my child need to know that 4 + 7 equals 7 + 4?

Yes, and it is a real time-saver rather than a technicality. Once your child trusts that order does not change the total, they can always start from the larger number, which halves the counting.

Are word problems included?

Grade 1 addition sheets typically mix number sums with short picture or story problems about joining two groups, so your child practises recognising when addition is the right operation, not only how to compute it.

Should I stop my child from using their fingers?

No. Finger counting is a normal and useful stage in Grade 1. What is worth changing is counting both groups from one - encourage starting at the larger number and counting on instead.
