Knowing 10 facts is hugely important for future success in mathematics. We have been practicing so many different and fun ways. Take a look! We built Ten Fact Rainbows to help the students memorize the very important ten facts. We built stacks of ten and then made a rainbow poster to tie the learning together and give the students a great visual.
After each student had a Ten Fact Rainbow, the students used the rainbows to play a game called "Ten Grab." In the video below, two girls are using the rainbow to play. In "Ten Grab," player one rolls the die. If the student rolls a 4, he/she would take 6 cubes because 6+4=10. Play continues until the cubes are gone. The student with the most cubes is the winner.
We also made books about Ten using the app Scribble Press. To make the books, students had to arrange the ten facts on a ten frame, take a photo, size their photo, and add the photo to their books. Then, the students wrote the equation on the page. Click here to be linked to one student's book.
We will continue to work on combinations of ten in the next two weeks. Look for more posts with games to practice combinations of ten!
