Math Activities - Tens Frame Cards
Ideal practice and consolidation of early number and
counting concepts through 10 frame math games and activities...
Ideas for Use...
Ten Frame Cards - Ideas for Use...
- INCLUDES 11 PAGES - 1 PAGE OF BLANK 10 FRAMES, 1 PAGE EACH OF 1-10 DOTTED FRAMES WITH
4 DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS OF DOTS ON EACH PAGE...
- Ideal for recognising dotted number formations and number clusters - hold up the cards and ask children
to say how many dots there are - talk about patterning and clusters - eg. '3 dots on this side and 3 dots on
this side - 6 dots' - 'There is a line of dots across the top of the frame - this is 5 dots - half of the frame - half of ten'
- Children add counters to the different arrangements to make up 10 - use loads of maths language
as they go - record the process using number cards.
Eg. "This card starts with 6 dots - I add 2 more counters - now there are 8 - I add another 2 counters - now there are 10" 6 + 4 = 10
- These are ideal for Interactive Whiteboards - children draw on the extra counters in the spaces -
loads of math language opportunities with these cards.
- Use 2 frames or more to investigate beyond 10
- Use the frames to introduce place value.
- Using blank frames - show a dotted frame for 3 seconds - children have to match the position and number using
counters on their blank frames.
- Display number cards underneath to represent
different dotted frames and configurations.
- Using 2 blank frames each - children take turns throwing a dice - they place that amount of counters
onto their frames. Continue around the group until first person fills their twenty spaces - they are the winner - again loads of language here as the game is played.
- Using the full 10 dotted frames - laminate these and cut them up into all sorts of different configurations
and grouping - children then use these configurations to make up and represent all sorts of
number stories - eg. 2 dots plus 2 dots plus 2 dots is 8 - eg. 8 dots and 4
dots and 3 dots = 15 dots...
ABSOLUTELY LOADS OF MATH LEARNING WITH THESE - CUT THEM IN ALL SORTS OF WAYS - PUT THEM TOGETHER TO MAKE UP ALL SORTS
OF NUMBER INVESTIGATIONS, GROUPINGS AND MORE - DON'T FORGET THAT GREAT LANGUAGE WHICH COMES FROM THIS....
