The Make Ten ten-frame worksheet is a one-page Grade 1 math printable for practicing addition pairs that make 10. Children look at clear ten-frame models, connect each model to a number pair, and use the writing fields for the facts 6 and 4, 9 and 1, and 5 and 5.

At age 6, make-ten facts matter because children are starting to use 10 as a friendly number for addition and subtraction. First graders often stall when a number fact changes from dots to numerals, so the ten-frame gives the eyes a steady place to land.

A parent or teacher can sit beside the child and cover one writing field at a time. Ask the child to count the filled spaces, say the two parts aloud, trace the full ten-frame with a finger, and then write the matching make-ten fact.

The worksheet stays focused on three complete ten-frame examples instead of crowding the page with mixed problems. Clear models and open writing spaces help children slow down, notice the missing partner to 10, and build confidence with a small set of useful facts.
