10640 : Addition for Subtraction Within 10 | Fact Families Worksheets Grade 1

This 10-page worksheet pack shows 1st graders that addition and subtraction are linked by pairing every subtraction fact with a missing-addend addition fact.

Each row has two equations that use the same three numbers. On the left is a subtraction problem such as 10 − 8 = __, and on the right its partner, 8 + __ = 10. Students solve the subtraction first, then use the answer to fill the gap in the addition equation. The instruction line at the top of every page reads "Addition and Subtraction are linked! Solve each problem." Each page has nine rows, and the small pictures (flowers, spoons and spatulas, lions and elephants, sheep and pigs) act as the counters. All numbers stay within 10.

• 10-page printable PDF titled "Addition for Subtraction to 10"
