These free homeschool printables are perfect for home use and math practice on-the-go. I’ll share how you can use them both ways below.
Superhero Math: Addition Clip Cards
You can use these addition clip cards to teach one fact family at a time, or you can use them to review fact families after you’ve taught them. Either way, these math clip cards are a great alternative to yet another math worksheets.
All you’ll need to do to use these cards with your kiddos is print them and cut them apart. I suggest printing them on cardstock, because it’s sturdier than regular printer paper. I also like to laminate my clip cards before cutting them apart, but it’s not necessary.
I like to use my paper cutter to cut the cards apart, because it’s much faster than cutting with scissors. And, the paper cutter results in much cleaner straight lines.
Once you’ve prepped all the cards, it’s time to turn them over to your students. Give them a handful of clothespins or paper clips, and have them solve each addition problem on the superhero math cards.
They will clip the correct answer with a clothespin or paperclip. You could also have them cover the correct answer with a counter or gem if you don’t want to use clothespins or paper clips.
Variations
To make this activity self-checking, put a small sticker on the back of each card behind the correct answer. After your children have finished the activity, they can flip the cards over to see if they’ve clipped the sticker. If so, they’ve solved the addition problem correctly.
