Teaching with Ten Frames

My students need their own ten frames so they can be actively engaged in our math lessons.

My Students

Math! People either love it or hate it! Those that love it have good number sense. The bad news is that number sense cannot be taught. The good news is that it can be developed!

The majority of my students come from low income families.

Almost 70% qualify for free or reduced lunch and some are even homeless. Most students come to school with a limited vocabulary, very few positive life experiences, and little background knowledge about most topics.

My Project

I was honored to attend the National Singapore Math Conference 2 years in a row. It completely changed the way I teach math. Students from Singapore are continually ranked above the rest of the world when it comes to math. Why? NUMBER SENSE! One strategy to help develop number sense is for students to work with Ten Frames. My students are exposed to and work with ten frames daily in whole group lessons. Funding of this project would get a Magnetic Ten Frame in each of their hands which will keep them actively engaged in our lesson.

Students learn math best when they are actively engaged and when they use manipulative materials.

Your support with this project will help me develop number sense in my students by providing each student their own Ten Frame to use during lessons. Let's get more people in the "Math.....Love It" group!
