About This Practice Sheet

The Addition Jungle Practice Sheet gives students a simple way to connect digital gameplay with written math practice. After students practise addition in the Addition Jungle game, they can use this sheet to solve addition facts, draw a math story, write their own number sentence, and reflect on the strategy they used.

This resource works well for math centres, small-group review, whole-class follow-up, independent practice, early-finisher work, or at-home practice.

What Students Practise

  • Solving simple addition facts using mental math, counting on, drawing, or objects.
  • Representing addition with drawings and pictures.
  • Writing and reading number sentences such as 4 + 3 = 7.
  • Creating their own addition question to show understanding.
  • Explaining which addition strategy helped them solve a problem.

Suggested Lesson Flow

  1. Warm up: Review counting on, using fingers, drawing pictures, or using objects to add.
  2. Play: Let students play Addition Jungle and solve addition questions on screen.
  3. Discuss: Ask students which strategy helped them solve the questions fastest or most accurately.
  4. Complete: Students finish the practice sheet independently or with a partner.
  5. Share: Invite students to explain one addition question and the strategy they used.

Differentiation Ideas

Extra Support

Provide counters, ten frames, number lines, or picture supports. Students can also work with a partner and solve fewer questions with more time.

Extra Challenge

Ask students to write harder addition questions, include two-step addition stories, or explain two different strategies for the same question.

Assessment Ideas

Teachers can use the completed practice sheet as a quick check for addition fluency, number sentence understanding, and strategy use. The drawing and reflection sections also show whether students can represent and explain their thinking.
