Let's practice our number bonds! A number bond shows how numbers join together. Complete the ten exercises below to show how two small numbers make a bigger number.

| 2. 3 and ___ makes 8 | 2 |
| 3. 7 and ___ makes 9 | 6 |
Part 2: Count and Write
Count the shapes in each group. Then, write the full number bond sentence on the line.
4. â— â— and â— â— â—
5. â–² â–² â–² â–² â–² and â–² â–²
6. â– â– â– and â– â– â–
