Counting with Ten Frames Up to 40 – Learn to count using ten frames – Understand numbers up to 40 – Numbers are fun and easy to learn – Ten frames make counting simple – Each frame has 10 spaces to fill – Practice counting with activities – We’ll use objects to fill our ten frames | This slide introduces students to the concept of using ten frames as a visual tool to understand and count numbers up to 40. Ten frames are a great way to help students visualize numbers and understand the concept of base ten, which is fundamental in mathematics. By arranging counters or objects in ten frames, students can easily see the numbers as groups of ten and single units, making it simpler to count, add, and subtract. During the lesson, engage students with hands-on activities where they fill in ten frames with objects like beads or blocks to practice counting. Encourage them to explain their counting process to develop their verbal math skills.

Understanding Ten Frames – Ten frames as counting tools – A rectangle divided into 10 equal parts to help with counting. – Structure of a ten frame – Two rows of five, like two hands. – Filling spaces to count – Use counters or draw dots in each box to represent numbers. – Visualizing numbers up to 10 | Introduce ten frames as a visual tool to help students understand the concept of counting and numbers up to 10. Explain that a ten frame is like a double row of boxes where we can place objects or marks to count. Each box represents one unit. Show how filling the ten frame can help visualize numbers and make counting more intuitive. Use examples like placing counters or drawing dots to fill the spaces. This will set the foundation for using ten frames to count up to 40 by combining multiple ten frames.

Counting with Ten Frames – Use counters on ten frames – Fill ten frames with blocks or dots – Each space equals one number – One counter in each space shows a number – Count together up to 40 – We’ll count in class using ten frames – Practice makes perfect | This slide introduces the concept of using ten frames to count up to 40, which is a foundational skill in understanding numbers and counting in first grade math. Ten frames are a visual tool that helps students to count by ones and by tens, making it easier to grasp the concept of place value and number patterns. Encourage students to use physical counters like blocks or dots to fill in the ten frames, reinforcing the one-to-one correspondence between the counters and the numbers they represent. During the lesson, engage the students in a group activity where they count aloud together using the ten frames. This will not only help them to learn counting but also to recognize the patterns that emerge when the frames are filled. Practice is key, so provide ample opportunities for students to work with ten frames during class and at home.

Counting Beyond 10 with Ten Frames – Starting a new ten frame after 10 – When one ten frame is full, we begin another for more numbers. – Counting up to 20 with ten frames – Use two ten frames to count from 11 to 20. – Practice filling in two ten frames – We’ll add dots to empty frames to reach 20 together. | This slide introduces students to the concept of counting past 10 using ten frames. Once the first ten frame is filled with 10 dots, we start filling a second ten frame to count further. This visual representation helps students understand the base-ten system and prepares them for counting to higher numbers. During the practice activity, guide the students to fill in the second ten frame with dots, starting from 11 up to 20. Encourage them to count aloud as they place each dot. This hands-on activity reinforces their counting skills and understanding of the ten frame as a counting tool. Prepare to assist students who may need help and offer praise as they complete the task.

Counting to 40 with Ten Frames – Count to 40 using ten frames – Each full ten frame equals 10 – Imagine a box with 10 spots. When all are filled, that’s 10! – Count by tens: 10, 20, 30, 40 – Like counting 10, 20, 30, 40 with cookies in jars – Practice with four ten frames – We’ll fill up four boxes, each with 10 spots, to show 40 | This slide introduces students to the concept of counting to 40 using ten frames. Each ten frame is a visual representation of the number 10, and by using four of them, we can easily count up to 40. Start by explaining what a ten frame is and how it represents the number 10 when full. Then, guide the students to count by tens using the frames as a visual aid. Encourage them to visualize filling up each frame with counters or drawing dots until they reach 40. This visual method helps solidify their understanding of counting in tens and lays the groundwork for addition and subtraction within 40.

Let’s Practice Counting with Ten Frames! – Counting with ten frames – Count together as a class – Each full ten frame equals 10 – A ten frame is a 2×5 grid and when full, it represents 10 – Add more to count beyond 10 – If one ten frame is full (10) and the next has 3 dots, we have 13 | This slide is designed for an interactive class activity where students will practice counting using ten frames. Begin by explaining the concept of a ten frame and how it represents the number 10 when full. Then, as a class, count together using ten frames, starting from 1 and working up to 40. Encourage students to visualize each full ten frame as a ‘group of 10’ and to add additional dots to incomplete ten frames for numbers beyond 10. For example, for the number 23, students should visualize two full ten frames (representing 20) and an additional ten frame with 3 dots. Provide clear instructions and ensure that each student has a chance to participate in the counting activity. Prepare different scenarios ahead of time to cater to various learning paces and to keep the activity engaging.

Class Activity: Ten Frame Fun – Fill ten frames to count to 40 – Use stickers or stamps as markers – Pair up for counting teamwork – Help each other in counting | This activity is designed to help students understand the concept of counting using ten frames, which are tools for counting that help visualize numbers as groups of ten. Provide each student with a worksheet that includes several ten frames and a set of stickers or stamps. Encourage them to fill in the ten frames with stickers or stamps to count up to 40. Students should work in pairs to foster collaboration and peer learning. As they work, they should help each other and verify that each ten frame is filled correctly. Possible variations of the activity could include using different colored stickers for different ten frames, having a race to see which pair can fill their ten frames accurately the fastest, or asking students to fill in a certain number of ten frames to represent a number you call out.

Ten Frames Review & Questions – Recap on ten frames usage – Benefits of ten frames in counting – They make counting to 40 easier by grouping – Open floor for questions – Volunteer to demonstrate ten frames – Who wants to try using a ten frame? | This slide aims to consolidate the day’s learning about ten frames and their application in counting up to 40. Begin by asking students to recall how ten frames are used, reinforcing the concept of grouping in tens for easier counting. Highlight the benefits of ten frames, such as visual aid in understanding numbers and improving counting efficiency. Open the floor for any questions the students might have, allowing for clarification and ensuring understanding. Finally, encourage students to volunteer and demonstrate their ability to use ten frames, fostering a hands-on learning experience. This interactive session will help assess student comprehension and provide an opportunity for peer learning.

Great Counting Work Today! – Excellent counting up to 40 – Practice counting with ten frames – Use ten frames to practice more – Counting to 100 is next – We’ll explore numbers beyond 40 – Keep up the great work at home – Try to fill ten frames to 40 with objects | Today’s class was a success, and the students did a fantastic job learning to count up to 40 using ten frames. Encourage them to continue practicing at home, perhaps with physical objects and ten frames they can create with paper and markers. Reinforce the concept that practice is key to mastering counting. In the next class, we will build on this foundation and extend our counting skills all the way to 100. Prepare various activities and visual aids to help students grasp the concept of higher numbers and ensure they understand the pattern of counting in tens.
