Making Maths Reason-able

This resource uses ten-frames to show 2-digit numbers as a number of full tens and a number of ones (not enough to make another full ten). Students can match the cards face up to learn the structure of 2-digit numbers or play a game with them face down looking for pairs for consolidation or as a small group activity/math centre. Suggest ten frame cards are copied onto one colour paper and the numbers onto another to facilitate the matching game.

This file is a set of matching cards representing teen numbers in 4 different ways : as a numeral e.g. 16; using ten-frames (1 full ten-frame and one with 6 dots); Ten|Ones place value chart; words (sixteen). Students can match 2 pairs or all 4 cards face up to practise different representations of the same number. They can turn them over and play memory (choose 2 and see if they match).. or Snap.. Recommendation: copy each different set onto a different colour paper before laminating so student

This product includes two representations of decimals between 0 and 1. The number is on one set of cards and an area model of the tenths or hundredths. Suggest asking students to order the picture cards, then put them in a pile in order. Then order the number cards (most will do this incorrectly) and then put the picture cards back beside them and see if they match.. then challenge them to reorder the number cards as the pictures are probably correct. See if they notice how the decimals work.. a

This game practises recognising teen numbers as 1 ten and extras (but not enough to make another ten). The game uses ten-frames to represent teen numbers. Students choose a number card and find the matching representation on the game board. The game format is simple and effective for place value concept practice.

This game practises the concept that 2-digit numbers consist of a number of tens and a number of ones. Students choose two cards, one shows a number of full ten-frames (the tens) and the other shows a partially full ten-frame (the ones). They identify which 2-digit number they have represented and find it on the game board in numeral format. The game is simple and effective for students to see the number of tens and number of ones.

This set of cards represents multiples of ten 0-100 as numerals, pics of ten frames, number of tens e.g. 4 tens and the word. Suggestion is to copy each representation onto a different colour paper so kids can play matching games and have a better chance of getting a pair.
