How can I use these worksheets in my classroom?

As an educator, there are several ways you can use these worksheets in your classroom:

1. Practice Material: After teaching a specific concept, such as single-digit addition or place value, you can use these worksheets as practice material to reinforce what students have been taught in class.

2. Assessments: You can use these worksheets to assess students' understanding of the topics you've taught. The variety of exercises, including word problems and numeric problems, can help gauge students' grasp of the material.

3. Homework Assignments: These worksheets can be assigned as homework to give students additional practice outside of the classroom. They can help fill in the gap from regular workbooks.

4. Centers or Stations: In a classroom that uses a centers or stations approach, these worksheets could be used at a math center where students rotate through different activities.

5. Early Finisher Activity: For students who finish their work early, these worksheets can provide an additional challenge and keep them engaged.

6. Group Work: Some worksheets could be used for pair or small group work, promoting collaborative problem-solving skills.

Remember, it's important to go through the worksheets with the students after they've completed them, or provide them with the answer keys, to ensure they understand any mistakes they might have made.

What math skills should I teach my first grade class?

The skills you teach your first graders will depend on your curriculum and their individual learning needs.

Generally, students should learn basic arithmetic operations within 20, understand numbers up to 120, tell time using both analog and digital clocks, interpret simple data, and understand basic geometric concepts including shape attributes and partitioning.

If you’re following the Common Core curriculum , you will want to cover the following standards:

Operations and Algebraic Thinking:

  • Using basic addition and subtraction within 20 to solve a variety of word problems, including those involving putting together or taking apart numbers, comparisons, and unknowns in all positions. This can be achieved using visual aids like objects and drawings, or equations with symbols for unknown numbers.
  • Solving word-based math problems involving the addition of three whole numbers whose total is less than or equal to 20.
  • Applying properties of operations as strategies for addition and subtraction.
  • Understanding subtraction as a problem of finding an unknown addend.
  • Relating the process of counting to the concepts of addition and subtraction.
  • Adding and subtracting numbers within 20 fluently, and applying strategies such as counting on, making ten, decomposing numbers, using the relationship between addition and subtraction, and creating equivalent but easier or known sums for ease of calculation.
  • Understanding the meaning of the equal sign and being able to determine if addition and subtraction equations are true or false.
  • Determining the unknown whole number in equations involving the addition or subtraction of three whole numbers.

Number and Operations in Base Ten:

  • Counting up to 120, starting from any number less than 120. This also involves reading and writing numerals within this range and representing a number of objects with a written numeral.
  • Understanding that a two-digit number is composed of tens and ones.
  • Comparing two two-digit numbers based on the meaning of the tens and ones digits. This involves using the symbols '>', '=', and '<' to record the results of comparisons.
  • Adding within 100, including adding a two-digit number to a one-digit number, and a two-digit number to a multiple of 10. This involves using concrete models or drawings, strategies based on place value, and properties of operations. Students are also expected to relate their strategies to a written method and explain their reasoning. It includes understanding that when adding two-digit numbers, one adds tens to tens and ones to ones, and occasionally it may be necessary to compose a ten.
  • Given a two-digit number, mentally finding 10 more or 10 less than the number without having to count, and being able to explain the reasoning behind it.
  • Subtracting multiples of 10 (ranging from 10 to 90) from other multiples of 10 in the same range. This is done using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value and operations. Students should relate their strategy to a written method and explain their reasoning used.

Measurement & Data: 

  • Telling and writing time in hours and half-hours using both analog and digital clocks.
  • Organizing, representing, and interpreting data with up to three categories. This involves asking and answering questions about the total number of data points, the number of data points in each category, and comparing the number of data points between different categories.
  • Distinguishing between defining attributes (like triangles being closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (such as color, orientation, or size). This includes building and drawing shapes with defining attributes.
  • Partitioning circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares and describing these shares using terms like halves, fourths, and quarters. Also, understanding that decomposing a shape into more equal shares results in smaller shares. This includes the ability to describe the whole shape as two or four of these shares.

  • Key takeaways
  • Addition & Subtraction: Adding and subtracting numbers is like solving puzzles and helps us with real-life situations.
  • Word Problems: Solving word problems makes math fun and helps us become better readers and problem solvers.
  • Place Value: Understanding place value helps us read and write numbers correctly and compare their values.
  • Measurement & Time: Measuring objects and telling time help us understand the world around us and manage our daily routines.
  • Geometry (Shapes): Recognizing shapes and their properties helps us see the world in a new way and understand how things are put together.

Did you know that ladybugs have spots on their backs?

If a ladybug has 2 spots on its back and it gets 1 more spot, how many spots will the ladybug have in total?

The lady bug will have 3 spots!

First grade word problems are like fun puzzles that help us use our math skills to solve real-life situations. They are essential to 1st grade math, and practicing them can help us become math superstars!

  • We can use addition and subtraction to determine how many cookies are left in a jar, how many friends are on the playground, or even how many apples are in a basket.
  • Understanding place value is like being a number detective. It helps us read big numbers and know the value of each digit, so we can count things like how many toys we have or how many days until our birthday.
  • Measuring things and telling time is like being an explorer in the real world. We can measure how tall we are, how long a pencil is, or even how much water is in a cup. And knowing how to read a clock helps us know when it’s time for fun activities or when it’s time to go to bed.
  • Shapes are like building blocks of the world around us. We can learn about squares, triangles, and circles by looking at objects we see every day. It’s like being a shape detective, finding out how many sides and corners they have, and how they fit together like puzzle pieces in 1st grade math problems.

All of these skills are necessary for 1st grade math practice! Use these 50 math problems to go over important math skills needed to strengthen your first graders understanding and knowledge.
