Dice Addition Worksheet: Add the Spots and Match!

How to use this worksheet

Look at the first pair of dice together and have your child count the dots on each one, saying the totals out loud. Ask them to add the two numbers together to find the sum, using fingers or counting the dots directly if needed. Have them find that sum among the numbers listed on the right side of the page and draw a line connecting the dice pair to the matching number. Repeat for each set of dice on the page.
