1 73C Ten Frames Objective To use ten frames to explore numbers and number relationships through 10. Key Concepts and Skills Use understanding of one-to-one correspondence and cardinality to count and create sets of objects. [Number and Numeration Goal 2] Represent numbers on a ten frame. [Number and Numeration Goal 3] Use a ten frame to explore benchmarks of 5 and 10. [Number and Numeration Goal 5] Compare numbers and sets. [Number and Numeration Goal 6] Identify pairs of numbers that add to 10. [Operations and Computation Goal 1] Terms to Use ten frame Materials Teaching Aid Masters (Math Masters, pp B); counters Whole Group Small Group Partners Center Planning Tip Make a copy of Math Masters, page 103 for each child. Also copy and cut apart one set of ten-frame cards (Math Masters, pages 103A and 103B) for every child or pair of children. If possible, laminate or use cardstock for durability. A Core Activities Exploring Ten Frames (Math Masters, pp B) Give each child a ten frame (Math Masters, page 103) and ten counters. Explain that it is called a ten frame. Orient the ten frame horizontally and put one counter in each box, starting at the top left. Fill the top row from left to right, and then repeat in the bottom row. Invite children to do the same. Lead children in counting the counters aloud to reinforce the total number of 10. Name Ten Frame Have children clear their ten frames. Then dictate and write a number between 1 and 5 and direct children to use counters to show that number on their ten frames, reminding them to start at the top left. Ask children what they notice about the ten frames. If no one brings it up, highlight that only the top row has counters. Ask: How many more counters do you need to get to 5 (to fill the top row)? How many more do you need to get Math Masters, p

2 to 10? How do you know? If necessary, remind them that the ten frame has 10 spaces and guide them to count the empty spaces to find how many to get to 10. Next, have children use counters to show a number between 6 and 10 on their ten frames. Again, ask what they notice. Ask: Is the number more than 5? How many more than 5? How many more counters do you need to get to 10? Repeat for several numbers. Hold up several cards from Math Masters, pages 103A 103B and ask children what numbers they represent. Next, give each child or pair a set of ten-frame cards and have them do some or all of the following: Choose a card, identify the number it represents and how much more to make 10. NOTE When using ten frames, routinely ask children how they know what number is represented. Promote discussion of a variety of strategies. Some children may not be ready for it yet, but look for someone to share the strategy of using benchmarks of 5 or 10 ( I noticed it was 5 and 2 more, so I said 5, 6, 7 or I noticed that it was two less than 10 ). Choose a card and identify the numbers right before and right after. Choose two cards and decide which is greater and which is less. (Discuss children s strategies for determining this.) Choose a number-collection bag from Activity 1-5 and line up the objects in the bag on the ten-frame card that matches the bag number. Put ten-frame cards in the Math Center and encourage children to continue these activities and make up others to do with the ten-frame cards. Exploring Shape Combinations (Revisit Activity, p. 73A; Math Masters, pp. 5A 5H) Place Shape-Card Puzzles or Pattern-Block Puzzles in the Math Center. B Teaching Options EXTRA PRACTICE Exploring Ten Pennies with Two Hands (Math Masters, p. 103) Give children 10 pennies, 2 wipe-off markers, and a laminated copy of Math Masters, p Model how to divide the pennies between their two hands and record their results on the ten frame. They should mark spaces in one color to match the number of pennies in their left hand and mark spaces in the other color to match the number of pennies in their right hand. 4 pennies in the left hand and 6 pennies in the right hand 73D Activity Ten Frames
