Doubles - Worksheet

The "Doubles Worksheet" series is a collection of maths teaching resources designed to help young learners grasp the concept of doubling numbers. The first worksheet presents a straightforward task where students are asked to double various shapes and complete mathematical sentences. For instance, they are given simple addition equations like 2 + 2 and prompted to fill in the blanks with the correct answers, reinforcing their understanding of what it means to double a number, such as 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, and 6.

Subsequent worksheets continue to explore the concept of doubling in engaging ways. In one activity, children are invited to draw spots on ladybirds to visually double the number of spots, ensuring they comprehend the concept of doubling through both numerical and visual representation. This worksheet includes doubling numbers such as 5, 8, 6, 10, 7, and 9. Another worksheet encourages students to match pairs of doubles, while a different one asks them to complete sentences by filling in the blanks with the correct doubles of numbers such as 1, 3, 7, and to find the numbers that double to make 8, 10, and 12. The final worksheet provides real-life context problems involving characters like Bertie, Flo, Joel, and Andre, who have items that need to be doubled, ranging from sweets to pencils and lemons, to shells. This helps students apply their knowledge of doubles to practical scenarios, enhancing their understanding of the concept.
