This bat wings addition worksheet helps preschool and kindergarten learners practice adding numbers up to 5. Children add the numbers on each wing together and write the total in the box.

This bat-themed addition to 5 worksheet is a great activity that’s perfect for your little learners to work on their adding skills.
They’ll need to carefully add together the numbers in the bat’s wings, then use their number formation skills to write the correct amount in the boxes.
Addition is a crucial skill for children to learn and one they’ll obviously use a lot as they grow!
What Skills Can Your Little Ones Learn And Develop?
This Bat wings adding worksheet is designed to help your children practice and develop some early skills, such as:
- One to one correspondence – this important skill (trickier than you may think) is the ability to only touch and count an object of a set once.
- Number formation – understanding what the numbers look like and how to form them
- Adding – adding two amounts together to find the total
- Hand-eye coordination – to be able to understand what they are seeing and get their hands to go where they want them to go
- Hand and finger strength – the ability to be able to apply enough pressure to make marks on the page and hold the pencil firmly
- Hand dominance – developing and strengthening the skill of one of their hands
- Pencil control – holding the pencil correctly to allow for a fluid range of movement
Some of these are vital fine motor skills that will enable them to become great writers in the future!
