About the Math

Skills and concepts below are learning goals for this standard.

  • Determine the number to add a given number 1-9 to make 10.
  • Represent combinations of 10 with a drawing or equation.

This concept is the beginning of anchoring numbers to five and ten. The five frame is an effective tool to help students see numbers to five. Using a five frame, explain that one counter is put in each square. Ask the students to place four counters on the five frame. Ask them what they notice about four - it is one away from five. Once the five frame is understood, introduce the ten frame (see "online resources"). The standard way to show numbers on a ten frame is to fill up the top row, starting on the left, the same way you read. When the top row is full, counters can be placed in the bottom row, starting at the left. Ask students about the relationships of the number shown to five and ten. "Show me 7 on the ten frame. How many more to make ten? How many more than five?" Move to representing the relationships to recording them through expressions and equations.
