Goldfish Making 10s Math Game

By: A. Whiteley

I created this game to provide my students with a fun way to


practice some addition facts. It would make a great math center
activity, small group or to send home for a great student-parent
activity.
The recording sheet can be copied for individual use or laminated
and used with a dry erase marker.

Common Core Standards:


K.OA.5: Operations & Algebraic Thinking: Fluently add and subtract
within 5.
1.OA.6: Operations & Algebraic Thinking: Add and subtract within
20. Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies.
