About This Ten More Ten Less Worksheet
This free printable ten more ten less worksheet helps first- and second-grade students add and subtract 10 mentally. Learners write ten more and ten less than a given number, building the hundred-chart pattern of moving one row down or up. Print on US Letter or A4 paper and use the included answer key to check work quickly.
What Students Will Learn
Students learn that adding or subtracting 10 changes only the tens digit, a key mental-math shortcut. Seeing this pattern on the hundred chart strengthens place-value understanding and prepares students for two-digit addition and subtraction.
How Teachers Can Use This Worksheet
- Hundred-chart warm-up: Have students place a finger on a number and hop down one row (+10) or up one row (−10) before doing the worksheet.
- Pattern talk: Ask what stays the same and what changes when you add 10 (the ones digit stays, the tens digit goes up by one).
- Exit ticket: Say a number aloud and ask students to give ten more and ten less to check mental fluency.
How Parents and Homeschoolers Can Use This Worksheet
Use a hundred chart on the wall and let your child trace the +10 / −10 moves with a finger. Ask quick questions like "what is ten more than 47?" during daily routines. Keeping it oral and fast builds real mental-math speed.
