Ready for some addition and subtraction fun? Great! Making 10 and double facts are waiting for you! Grab your pencil, follow the directions, and complete the challenge!

Want to add and subtract numbers quickly? Try making 10! For example, in 7 + 5, you first break 5 into 3 and 2. So, 7 + 5 becomes 7 + 3 + 2, which is 10 + 2, or 12. Here's another one: in 17 - 3, you first break 17 into 10 and 7. Then, subtract the ones (7 - 3) and add the 10. What do you get? 14! Each picture in this activity lets you see the numbers in action. It shows why making 10 is a helpful tool in addition and subtraction. As you work through the problems, keep an eye out for fruity doubles! If the same number is added twice, like 2 + 2, it's called a double fact. When you see one, use it to solve problems faster. Ready for the challenge? Grab your pencil, and let's go!
