Here are two more links to websites that give you different worksheets to practice with. They look very similar to the ones we take in class.  I like this site because you can print out different versions of a worksheet.  If you are noticing that your child struggles with certain numbers, you can choose one of those worksheets to target those areas.  (ex. maybe your child is struggling with the 9's There are worksheets that only have math problems with the number 9.  9+1= ___, 3+9=___, 9+6= ___, etc.)  When you put your cursor on the worksheet, a black highlighted "Select a Worksheet" will pop up at the bottom.  That will mix up those same math problems on that page.  Scroll further down and there is a "Mixed" worksheet to focus on all numbers.  

Addition Drill Sheets

Subtraction Drill Sheets
