Number bonds for 10
5 questions
1st - 1st Grade
Mathematics
Number Bonds for 10 is a Grade 1 mathematics worksheet that helps students identify pairs of numbers that add to 10. Through five multiple-choice questions, students select the missing partner for a given number, recognize complete number-bond pairs, and check whether a pictured number bond is correct. The varied prompts reinforce the connection between addition facts and number bonds rather than asking students to solve only one repeated format. This free printable worksheet is suitable for introductory practice, independent review, or a quick check of students’ fluency with combinations that make 10. Teachers can use students’ choices to identify whether they understand complementary numbers, such as 5 and 5 or 9 and 1, and whether they can apply that relationship when the question is presented in words, equations, or a picture. An answer key is included for efficient checking.

FAQs
What does the Number Bonds for 10 worksheet help Grade 1 students learn?
This worksheet helps Grade 1 students identify the two numbers that combine to make 10. Its five multiple-choice questions ask students to select complete pairs, find a missing partner, and decide whether a pictured number bond is correct, building fluency with common pairs such as 9 and 1, 5 and 5, and 4 and 6.
How can I use this worksheet to teach number bonds for 10?
Introduce the idea that every number from 0 to 10 has a partner that completes 10, then model a few pairs with counters or a ten-frame. Have students explain how they found the missing partner before completing the multiple-choice items, and use the final picture-based question to discuss how a number bond represents the total of 10.
What mistakes should I watch for when students complete this number-bonds worksheet?
Students may choose an addition pair whose numbers look familiar without checking whether the total is exactly 10, such as selecting 8 + 1. They may also confuse the given number with its partner, or select “Yes” for the picture without verifying that both parts combine to 10. Ask students to count, add, or use a ten-frame to confirm each choice.

The worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, so you can assign the five multiple-choice questions in the format that suits your class.
