This medium worksheet shifts the focus from straight sums to missing-addend reasoning. First graders complete nine fill-in-the-blank equations such as ___ + 4 = 9, 6 + ___ = 8, ___ + 7 = 10, 8 + ___ = 10, and ___ + 5 = 6, working backward from a known total. A matching section then connects expressions like 2 + 5, 6 + 3, 1 + 3, and 4 + 6 to their sums of 4, 7, 9, and 10.

Pairing missing addends with matching trains children to think about parts and wholes, the foundation of fact families and early subtraction.
