Teaching tip
Once the rainbow is colored, it works as a cheat sheet for the facts below. This sheet is aligned with Common Core K.OA.A.3.
About this worksheet
A rainbow of the pairs that make 10, then fill-in facts like 3 + __ = 10. Fewer has 2 facts, Standard has 4 and More has 6.
What kids practice
A number bond shows how a number splits into two parts, like 5 is 2 and 3. Kindergartners learn the different ways to break apart numbers up to 10, and learn the pairs that make 10. These pairs are the base for adding and subtracting later on.
Watch for
- Writing the whole in a part circle, or adding the whole and a part together.
- Counting all the dots instead of just the missing part.
- Forgetting that 0 and 10, or 0 and 5, are pairs too.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full number bonds to 5 and 10 guide for kindergarten.
