About this worksheet
A free printable addition within 5 worksheet with an answer key. Add the numbers. Use your fingers or draw dots if you need to. Big pictures and only a few tasks per page make it a gentle start for kindergartners. Use small objects like buttons or cereal to check tricky problems.
On this sheet
20 problems, starting with 2 + 3, 0 + 2, 1 + 4, 1 + 2, 1 + 0, 4 + 0, 2 + 0, 0 + 5, 1 + 3, 5 + 0, 1 + 1, 0 + 1, 0 + 3, 3 + 1, and 6 more. The answers to all of them are on page 2.
Tips for using it
- Have your child say each fact out loud while writing the answer.
- Teach the make-10 trick early: 8 + 5 is the same as 8 + 2 + 3 = 13.
- Doubles (6 + 6, 7 + 7) are easy to remember and help with near doubles like 6 + 7.
- For column addition, always start with the ones column on the right.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. The PNG shows page 1 only. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
