You're looking at a
repeated addition worksheet designed for young learners (likely 1st or 2nd grade). The goal is to:
>
Color in the correct number of dots in each array based on the repeated addition problem.
Each array is a
5x5 grid, so it has
25 dots total. You’ll color only as many dots as the sum of the repeated addition.
---
Let’s solve each one step by step:
---
🔹 Problem 1: `4 + 4 + 4 + 4 =`
This means adding 4, four times.
✔ Calculation:
4 + 4 = 8
8 + 4 = 12
12 + 4 =
16
➡️
Color 16 dots in the first array.
---
🔹 Problem 2: `3 + 3 + 3 =`
Adding 3, three times.
✔ Calculation:
3 + 3 = 6
6 + 3 =
9
➡️
Color 9 dots in the second array.
---
🔹 Problem 3: `1 + 1 + 1 =`
Adding 1, three times.
✔ Calculation:
1 + 1 = 2
2 + 1 =
3
➡️
Color 3 dots in the third array.
---
🔹 Problem 4: `5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 =`
Adding 5, five times.
✔ Calculation:
5 × 5 =
25 (or add step-by-step: 5+5=10, +5=15, +5=20, +5=25)
➡️
Color all 25 dots in the fourth array.
---
🔹 Problem 5: `2 + 2 + 2 + 2 =`
Adding 2, four times.
✔ Calculation:
2 + 2 = 4
4 + 2 = 6
6 + 2 =
8
➡️
Color 8 dots in the fifth array.
---
🔹 Problem 6: `3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 =`
Adding 3, five times.
✔ Calculation:
3 × 5 =
15 (or 3+3=6, +3=9, +3=12, +3=15)
➡️
Color 15 dots in the sixth array.

✔ Final Answer Summary:
| Problem | Sum | Dots to Color |
|---------------------|-----|---------------|
| 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 | 16 | 16 |
| 3 + 3 + 3 | 9 | 9 |
| 1 + 1 + 1 | 3 | 3 |
| 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 | 25 | 25 (all) |
| 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 | 8 | 8 |
| 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 | 15 | 15 |

## 💡 Teaching Tip:
This worksheet helps students understand
multiplication as repeated addition. For example:
- `4 + 4 + 4 + 4` = 4 groups of 4 →
4 × 4 = 16
- `5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5` = 5 groups of 5 →
5 × 5 = 25
The arrays visually reinforce this concept — coloring the dots helps connect abstract math to concrete visuals.
---
✔ Now you can confidently color each array with the correct number of dots!
