Draw to Add

Students draw objects to represent each number in the math problem, then count all objects to find the total. This worksheet encourages hands-on modeling of addition, a key early-math strategy. Learners engage in representational thinking as they convert numerals into drawn sets. The activity strengthens number sense, fine motor skills, and foundational equation-solving abilities. Students gain confidence by visually constructing sums and verifying answers through counting.
