Addition Worksheets
Hub Page

Addition is a process which children learn quite naturally as soon as they learn to start counting. During kindergarten and first grade, adding piles of objects together is really important and reinforces childrens understanding of place value and 1:1 correspondence.

Later on, when children are confident adding piles of objects together, they can progress on to number lines or counting on in their heads. When children have understood this, they can begin to learn their addition facts and progress on to column addition. At 4th and 5th grade level, they start adding decimals.

Knowing your addition facts is still a key skill that children need to be able to use in real life math - you may not always have a pencil and paper to hand to do your column addition, but you will always have your addition facts!

Column Addition starts properly once children reach 1st grade, and after they have a good understanding of counting and place value. At first grade, children learn to add numbers up to 100 together.

Once they have mastered this, they can progress on to adding a range of 3 digit, then 4 digit numbers together in columns.

Once they reach 4th and 5th grade, they learn to add together columns of numbers which include decimals up to 2 decimal places.
