Research has shown that repetition is essential for the brain to learn and recall information. The activities in this book will provide your child with repeated practice in addition. When addition facts are automatic, basic computation skills such as subtraction, multiplication, and division are easier to learn. Thus, mastering these addition facts will help your child build a strong foundation for higher-level math skills.
Upon your child’s completion of each activity, use the provided incentive chart and stickers to track progress and celebrate your child’s success.
Whether students need extra practice with grade-level skills or a head start on next year, Stick Kids® Workbooks offer engaging activities, games, and puzzles that help make learning lots of fun. Each 56-page book features full-color activities, a list of the skills, and an explanation of why those skills are important for development.

HOW YOU CAN HELP SUPPORT LEARNING
Encourage your child to use the following strategies to develop automatic recall
of addition facts: - Counting on (start with the larger addend and count up by ones)
- Doubles (e.g., 6 + 6 = 12)
- Doubles plus one (e.g., 6 + 7 = 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13)
- Knowing all the combinations for 10
- Making 10 (e.g., 8 + 3 = 8 + 2 +1 = 10 + 1 =11)
- Creating equivalent but easier or known sums (e.g., adding 11 + 5 by creating
a known equivalent 10 + 1 + 5 = 10 + 6 = 16)
