My Project

A ten frame is used to represent numbers within and up to ten. Students can compose and decompose each number in a variety of ways which helps them develop number sense and understand different visual representations of numbers. Ten frames are so visual, they are a great tool for helping children acquire a skill called subitizing. Subitizing is when a student can instantly recognize how many of something there is without having to count. Ten frames help children see numbers within the context of ten.

Being confident with and being able to work flexibly with the number 10 will help children in so many areas of math as they go forward.

The ten frames are great for helping children understand and learn their number bonds to 10. When we talk about number bonds to 10, we are looking at how 10 can be broken down into pairs of numbers that total 10, such as 3 and 7, or 9 and 1.

Please help my students find the magic in 10!
