Resource Hub

This resource can be used for identifying and representing number bonds to 10. Students roll a dice and build that number on the tens frame, using counters, blocks or play dough etc. Students then fill in the missing places on the tens frame in a different coloured counter, block or play dough to clearly show the number bond to 10. Student can then fill in the missing addends to make accurate equations beside each tens frame.

This is a great resource to introduce counting backwards with your students. By using this resource, students gain better understanding of '1 less'. Students will also be able to identify that numbers go forwards and backwards. This is a great activity to use when introducing subtraction.

This activity it a great hands on task to use during any unit on subtraction (take away). Students start with an equation differentiated by the teacher (5 take away 3 = ___ or 10 - 7 = ______) which is placed on the rectangle. Students put the total number of counters from their equation in the tens frame, then take the other addend away by placing that many counters in the cup that is resting on the circle. It is also a great activity to use when introducing the subtraction symbol. Easily diffe
