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 product is a worksheet where students cut out equations and number stories and match them. The focus is on the equation as a representation of the story. Students need to match the equation that represents the story, not try to find an equation that works out the answer. Focus is on the START, ACTION (joining equal groups - multiplication or separating a total into equal groups - division) and the END. The unknown therefore can be any of these three.

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.

These posters of the numbers 0-20 are designed to reflect the structure of our place value system by positioning the full ten that represents the Tens to the left of the partly filled frame that represents the Ones. This file is in colour ... yes I'm Aussie :) . There is another file in my store that is black & white so if you can't print in colour it will print more clearly. Colours for the numbers with the same digit in the Ones place match for greater emphasis of the same number of ones.

This is a teacher resource booklet to support teachers developing lessons, activities and programs involving the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of single-digit numbers. It provides a summary of strategies that can be used to develop understanding and associated number sense rather than just committing these facts to memory. This resource has developed from my work as an educational consultant for nearly 20 years and is based on the work of many mathematics educators. The idea

This is a simple game that can be used to reinforce knowledge of Near Double addition basic facts. Students choose a card with a ten frame that shows a near double fact e.g. 4 dots on one side and 5 on the other (making 9 in total). Students match this image with the matching addition representation for the fact in the ten frame e.g. 4+5 on the game-board.There is no need to work out answers to the facts. This game just connects the near double image with the addition basic fact format. Students

This simple game reinforces seeing doubles being two collections of the same quantity. In this game students select a card that shows a ten frame where the dots are arranged in pairs (doubles). Students identify the total number of dots on their card and place their counter on a space with the matching number on the game-board. Students work in pairs to try to be the first to get three of their counters in a row on the game-board.

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.

Students match 2 cards that show the same 1-digit addition represented using ten-frames. One set of cards has 9+ a 1-digit number and the other set of cards has 10 + 1-digit numbers. Students find the pairs of cards e.g. 9+6 will match the picture of 10+5. There are 2x10 cards in the game. Recommendation: Copy each set of cards onto a different colour paper before laminating to help students find the pairs more easily.

This kit contains 2 game boards and resources to pay 6 different games to practise subitising Nos 1-6 and Nos 1-10 using dice, dot cards (provided) and ten-frames (provided). Students choose a card or roll a die and place a counter on the matching number. Aim is to get 3 of their counters in a row. Good activity for consolidation or for Maths centres.

These posters of the numbers 0-20 are designed to reflect the structure of our place value system by positioning the full ten that represents the Tens to the left of the partly filled frame that represents the Ones. This file is in black & white so if you can't print in colour - yes I'm Aussie :) ... it will print more clearly.. I have another file in my online store that is colour.

This resource includes 2 sets of cards. 1 set depicts addition equations that total 10 with the second addend missing. Students need to match the single-digit number card that completes the equation e.g. 3 + ? = 10 matches the 7 card. Play face up for learning and face down for consolidation. Suggest each set of cards is copied onto a different colour paper for ease of matching.

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.

This is a simple game that can be used to reinforce knowledge of Near Ten addition basic facts e.g. 7+4 is near 6+4 (+1). Students choose two different game cards. One shows either 7+, 8+ or 9+. The other card shows either 4,5 or 6. These two cards create a random addition basic fact. Students match this addition fact with a matching representation of the fact that highlights the make ten fact the fact created is near e.g. 8+6 would match 8+ 2+4 on the game-board.There is no need to work out ans

This simple game reinforces the Count On 1 and Count On 2 addition basic fact strategy. Students compete to get three of their counters on the game-board in a row. Students choose two cards, one from each set (a digit card and either a +1 or +2 card), and work out the basic fact by counting on. They place their counter on the total.

This simple game reinforces doubles as a set of addition basic facts. This game contains 2 different sets of cards to reinforce the same concept. The first set of cards list the word double e.g. Double 4. The second set of cards shows the double as an addition e.g. 4+4. Students identify the total of the double from memory or by working it out and place their counter on a space with the total that matches the double fact on the game-board. Students work in pairs to try to be the first to get thr

This is a simple game that can be used to reinforce knowledge of Find Ten addition basic facts. A Find Ten basic fact is an addition strategy where a number close to 10 is swapped for a 10 to make the computation easier and then the answer is fixed. Students choose 2 cards, one from each set. One card will show a number from 3-8 and the other card will show either +8 or +9. The 2 cards will form an addition fact. Students match the addition fact with a representation of the strategy they could u

The game practises the strategy where students break up 2-digit numbers into place value parts. Students choose 2 game cards to create an addition computation. They then match their computation with the ones on the game board where the 2 numbers have been broken into place value parts. The game is simple, effective and quick to play.
