ButterflyAddition and Subtraction
Worksheets
These worksheets are designed to help children practice addition and subtraction. A largeworkmat is provided for the children to use, as well as worksheets for sums and differ-ences from five to twelve.
This is the recommended sequence of instruction for addition:1. Introduce the activity by giving each child a copy of the workmat and some counters.We used lima beans that were painted in lots of pretty colors, but any manipulative will do.The counters represent the spots on the butterfly’s wings.2. For addition, roll a die or spin a spinner to get the first addend. Then have the childrenplace that many counters on one of the butterfly’s wings. Then roll again for the secondaddend and place that many counters on the other wing. Have the children count up thetotal number of manipulatives to find the answer to the addition problem. Show them howyou can write the equation that represents that problem on a white board or piece ofpaper. Do this several times.3. If possible, place these workmats into a page protector or some kind of “write-on, wipe-off” surface. Then give the children wet or dry erase markers and do the same activity asabove, but have them draw the spots on the butterfly rather than place the manipulativesthere. Then have them write their own equations.4. Once they understand what they are doing, they are ready to try this on the work-sheets. Good luck!
This is the recommended sequence of instruction for subtraction:1. Introduce the activity by giving each child a copy of the workmat and some counters.Decide how many counters you wish to start with, and have them place that many objectson the butterfly’s wings. I always have them put a few on either side.2. Spin a spinner or roll a die to decide how many objects should be subtracted, and havethe children take that many away. I always try to have them show me how many they tookaway, just to make sure that they did this correctly. Otherwise, they will get the wronganswer.3. Then, just have them count out how many are left to get the difference. Show themhow to write a subtraction equation, and have them try to write one of their own. 4. Once they understand what they are doing, they are ready to try this on the work-sheets. Show them that on the very last problem, they will have to draw their own spotson the butterfly, so it is important that they draw the correct amount of spots to beginwith, or the answer will not come out right.
