Adding up is so much more fun with a game in your hands. These addition games and activities help kindergarten and 1st grade kids build fact fluency within 10 and 20. Kids slap matching cards in fact family card games, play Addition War, swat sums, hop along number lines and clip answers on butterfly addition clip cards. Addition to 10 center packs, a life-size ten-frame and number bonds activity and a preschool combining sets pack round it out.
A fact family is a group of related facts, like 2 + 3 = 5 and 3 + 2 = 5. Number bonds show how two parts make a whole. Simplify with sums to 5, then add a challenge with sums to 20.
