Sums that make 10 color by number worksheets

What is on this worksheet

Students work out each sum in a grid and color only the squares that make 10, leaving near misses white, to reveal a star.

• Picture: Star

You can change any of these settings above. Press "New problems" for a fresh set with the same settings, or pick Version A to Z to print different sheets for neighboring desks. The answer key always matches.

About color by sum pictures

A grid of addition facts hides a picture. Students work out each sum and color only the squares that make the target, such as 10. The picture appears when they are right, so it doubles as a self-check.

Wrong squares are near misses (sums one to four away), so students must add rather than guess. Choose a target from 6 to 12 and a picture; the answer key shows the finished image.

Printing
