Learning Addition: Making 10 – Addition means joining together – Like combining 2 sets of blocks – Adding makes numbers grow – 3 apples + 2 apples = 5 apples – Counting up shows addition – We’ll count objects together in class – Practice: Complete to make 10 – Find what number adds to 6 to get 10 | This slide introduces the concept of addition to Kindergarten students by explaining it as a process of combining things together. Use tangible examples like blocks or apples to illustrate how when we add, the total number of items increases. Engage the class by counting objects together to visually demonstrate addition. For practice, present simple addition problems where one number is given, and the students find the number that needs to be added to reach 10. This exercise helps solidify their understanding of addition and the concept of making 10. Encourage students to use their fingers or classroom objects to find the answers.

Making 10 with Numbers – The number 10 is special in math – We can make 10 using two numbers – Example: 5 + 5 equals 10 – Other examples: 6 + 4, 7 + 3, 8 + 2 – Let’s find other pairs that make 10 – We’ll use blocks and drawings to learn | This slide introduces the concept of making 10, a fundamental skill in early math education. Emphasize the importance of the number 10 as a building block for understanding addition. Use simple, clear examples to show how two numbers add up to make 10. Encourage the students to use their fingers, blocks, or drawings to visualize the concept. In the next class, plan hands-on activities where students can practice making 10 in pairs or small groups, using different combinations of numbers. This will help solidify their understanding and make learning fun. Possible activities include using ten frames, counting objects, or interactive games that reinforce the concept of making 10.

Completing Addition Sentences to Make 10 – What is an addition sentence? – It has numbers, a plus sign, and equals 10. – Parts of an addition sentence – Starts with numbers, has a ‘+’ and ends with ‘=’ and an answer. – Example: 4 + 6 = 10 – This shows adding 4 and 6 gives us 10. – Let’s make 10 together! | This slide introduces the concept of addition sentences to Kindergarten students. Start by explaining that an addition sentence is a way to show how two numbers combine to make a new number. It includes numbers, a plus sign, and an equal sign, followed by the answer. Use the example 4 + 6 = 10 to illustrate a complete addition sentence that sums up to 10. Encourage the students to think of addition as combining groups of objects. For the activity, provide them with different pairs of numbers that add up to 10 and ask them to create their own addition sentences. Use visual aids like counters or blocks to help them visualize the concept. This hands-on activity will reinforce their understanding of addition and the number 10.

Let’s Practice Together: Making 10! – I’ll show an addition sentence – Find the missing number for 10 – Example: 3 + ___ = 10 – To make 10 when we have 3, what do we add? – What number completes it? – Think: What plus 3 equals 10? | This slide is designed to engage students in a class activity where they practice completing addition sentences to make 10. Start by showing them an addition sentence with a missing number, such as 3 + ___ = 10. Ask the class to find the missing number that would complete the sentence to make a sum of 10. Use the example to demonstrate how to think about the problem (‘What number do I need to add to 3 to get 10?’). Encourage students to use their fingers or counters to find the answer. For the activity, provide different addition sentences with one number missing and guide the students to find the correct number to complete the sentence. Possible activities include using manipulatives, drawing pictures, or using a number line. The goal is to build their understanding of addition and the concept of ‘making 10’, which is a foundational math skill.

Using Objects to Learn Addition – Use objects to add up to 10 – Blocks or fingers help us learn to add – Start with 7 blocks to make 10 – If we have 7, we need some more to make 10 – How many more blocks needed? – We find the answer by adding more blocks – Let’s count together! | This slide is designed to introduce kindergarteners to the concept of addition by using tangible objects such as blocks or fingers. Start by showing 7 blocks and ask the students how many more blocks are needed to reach 10. This visual and physical method of counting helps solidify the concept of addition. Encourage the students to count aloud together as you add more blocks to the initial 7. This interactive activity not only makes learning fun but also reinforces their understanding of how to complete an addition sentence to make 10. Prepare different sets of objects to cater to the varying learning paces of students and ensure everyone can actively participate.

Fun with Addition: Making 10 – Addition is fun with games – Games help us learn to add – Like using blocks or drawing dots – Practice helps us improve – Let’s make 10 together! – We’ll use games to practice adding numbers up to 10 | This slide is designed to introduce Kindergarten students to the concept of addition in a fun and engaging way. Emphasize the enjoyment of learning math through interactive games. Explain that playing educational games can help them understand how to combine numbers to make 10. Encourage them to practice regularly, as this will help them get better at addition. Activities could include using physical objects like blocks or drawing dots to visualize the addition process. During the class, you can organize activities where students can participate in adding numbers together to reach the sum of 10, reinforcing their understanding through play.

Class Activity: Making 10 with Blocks – Let’s practice making 10 together – Use blocks to create groups of 10 – Each block represents 1 unit, combine to make 10 – Work with a buddy on addition sentences – Help each other find numbers that add up to 10 – Show your groups of 10 to the class – Share your findings with your classmates | This activity is designed to help Kindergarten students understand the concept of addition by making it hands-on and interactive. Provide each pair of students with a set of blocks, and encourage them to physically group the blocks to make sets of 10. This will help them visualize the addition process. As they work through the activity, they should write down the addition sentences they’ve created, such as 6 blocks + 4 blocks = 10 blocks. Circulate the room to assist and encourage discussion between partners. Possible variations of the activity could include using different colored blocks to represent different numbers, or having students find multiple combinations that add up to 10. This will reinforce the idea that there are several ways to make 10. Conclude the activity with a group discussion where students can present their findings and reflect on what they’ve learned.

Review: Making 10 with Addition! – Adding makes numbers bigger – Many ways to make 10 – 2 + 8, 3 + 7, and 4 + 6 all equal 10 – Use objects to learn addition – Counting blocks or fingers to add – Practice with examples – Try 5 + 5 or 1 + 9 to make 10 | This slide is a recap of what we’ve learned about addition up to 10. Emphasize that addition is a way to combine numbers to get a larger number. Show that there are multiple combinations that can add up to 10, which helps in developing flexibility in thinking about numbers. Using physical objects like blocks or fingers can make abstract concepts more concrete for young learners. Encourage the students to practice with real-life examples and to use their newfound skills to solve addition problems. During the class, engage the students with interactive activities where they can physically add objects together to reach the sum of 10, reinforcing their understanding of the concept.
