Counting On Skills Assessment
Help Chloé and Amelia pack for a community picnic. Solve each challenge by counting on: start with the larger number, then count forward by the other number. You may use the number lines to show your jumps. Write your thinking where asked.
Warm-Up: Count On
Start at the first number and count forward by the second number.
1.Chloé packs 28 juice boxes. Amelia adds 5 more. What is 28 + 5? Count on from 28.
2.There are 46 apples in a basket. Add 7 more apples. What is 46 + 7? Show the number you start at and the number of steps you count.
3.A picnic table has 35 paper plates. Choose the correct total if 8 more plates are added.
- 41
- 43
- 53
- 83
4.Count on from 67 by 6. Write the six numbers you say after 67, then write the total for 67 + 6.
Picnic Number-Line Challenge
Use counting-on jumps to solve the next picnic problems.
5.The cooler holds 58 drinks. Add 20 more drinks. Use the number line: make two jumps of 10 from 58. Where do you land?
6.Amelia says, “For 39 + 4, I start at 1 and count all the way to 43.” Is Amelia using counting on efficiently? Explain what he could do instead.
7.Fill in the missing number: 74 + = 80. Count on from 74 to find how many more you need.
8.Chloé collected 126 napkins. Amelia collected 8 more. Find 126 + 8 by counting on, and write one sentence explaining your jumps.
Your Turn to Explain
Show that you can choose a helpful starting number and count on accurately.
9.A picnic game has 245 points. A player earns 30 more points, then 6 more. Solve 245 + 30 + 6 by counting on in two stages. What is the final score?
10.Make up a picnic addition problem with a starting number between 20 and 90 and an amount to add between 2 and 9. Write the equation, then solve it by counting on.
