Ways to Make 10

Last week in math we looked extra closely at the number ten, and the different ways that we could make ten.  Here are a few of the things we did.

Nicky used the 100s chart to highlight different ways to make ten. Then she took a screen shot of her work and brought it into Draw and Tell where she talked about what she knew.


Roc showed different ways to make ten using a 10s placemat and dinosaur counters.  Then he took a photo of his picture using Skitch and labelled it.


This student played Find Sums while learning different combinations of ten as he added apples to a tens frame.


We played some other games to learn more about the number ten too.  We are curious, have you looked at the number ten? And if so, what did you do to get to know ten a little bit better?

    2. Wow, you know a lot of ways to make ten too. Tonight we have to go home and tell our families as many different ways to make ten as we can. Are you up for our challenge?

    3. There are ten people in our class who took your challenge for telling their families ways to make ten. They have decided to write the ways down.
