Welcome to Numbers: Learning with Ten Frames – Greet our little mathematicians – Ten frames help us understand numbers – A ten frame is a 2×5 grid that we fill with counters to show numbers – Counting to 9 together – We’ll count the spots on the ten frame, one by one, up to 9 – Practice makes perfect – We’ll use ten frames for fun counting activities | This slide is designed to introduce Kindergarten students to the concept of ten frames as a visual tool for learning numbers up to 9. Start the lesson with a warm greeting to make the children comfortable. Explain that ten frames are like a game where we fill in squares to show numbers. Engage the class by counting together aloud from 1 to 9, using a ten frame as a visual aid. Encourage participation and praise their efforts to build confidence. Plan a series of hands-on activities where students can practice placing objects in the ten frame to represent different numbers up to 9. This will help solidify their understanding of counting and number recognition in a fun and interactive way.

Learning with Ten Frames – What’s a ten frame? – A rectangle with 10 equal squares – Ten frames help us count – They make counting, adding, and subtracting simple – Filling in the squares – We add dots to squares to show a number – Practice with numbers up to 9 | Introduce the concept of a ten frame as a visual tool to help students understand numbers and basic arithmetic. Explain that each square in the ten frame represents one unit. Demonstrate how to fill the squares from left to right to represent numbers up to 9. Use real ten frames and counters in class for hands-on practice. Encourage students to draw their own ten frames and fill in the squares to represent different numbers. This will help them visualize the numbers and understand the concept of counting and addition within 10.

Counting with Ten Frames – Starting with one on a ten frame – Fill the first square for 1 – Adding one more to show two – Now, there are two filled squares – Filling squares up to nine – Add squares until we have nine – Understanding ten frames | This slide introduces students to the concept of ten frames and how to use them for counting up to 9. Start by showing them how to represent the number 1 by filling in the first square on the ten frame. Then, demonstrate how to add one more square to represent the number 2. Continue this process, encouraging the students to fill in the squares until they reach 9. This visual representation helps students understand the concept of quantity and the basics of addition. Make sure to use a real ten frame during the lesson for a hands-on experience. Ask the students to participate by filling in the frames themselves with counters or drawing on a worksheet.

Numbers 1 to 5 on Ten Frames – Ten frames introduction – Filling frames for 1 to 5 – Show one more square filled for each number from 1 to 5 – Each number adds one square – Count filled squares together – Practice counting with students on the filled ten frames | This slide introduces kindergarteners to the concept of ten frames and how they are used to visually represent numbers 1 through 5. Start by explaining what a ten frame is a tool with 10 squares that helps us count and see numbers. Demonstrate how to fill the ten frames, starting with one square for the number 1 and adding one more square for each subsequent number up to 5. Emphasize the pattern that each number has one more square filled than the number before. Engage the students by counting the filled squares on each ten frame together. This activity will help them understand the concept of incrementing numbers and provide a visual way to grasp basic counting.

Exploring Numbers 6 to 9 on Ten Frames – Visualizing number 6 on a ten frame – Six dots fill more than half the frame. – Counting 7 squares on the frame – Seven dots, one more than six! – Filling 8 squares, almost full! – Eight dots, two empty squares remain. – Number 9, one square left empty – Nine dots, just one square to go! | This slide is designed to help Kindergarten students visualize and understand numbers 6 through 9 using ten frames. A ten frame is a simple visual tool that helps children count, recognize numbers, and understand the concept of 10. As you show each number on the ten frame, encourage the students to count aloud with you. This interactive counting helps them to grasp the concept of quantity and the relationship between the numbers. Make sure to emphasize the pattern of filling the ten frame and how each number is one more than the previous. The goal is to prepare them to understand the concept of ‘one less than ten’ when they reach number 9.

Let’s Practice Together with Ten Frames! – I’ll show a number – You fill the ten frame – What’s 3 on a ten frame? – Three dots: one in the top row, two in the second – Now show 7 on a ten frame – Seven dots: full top row, two in the second | This interactive slide is designed for a hands-on activity where students will practice representing numbers on ten frames. Start by showing them a number and then ask them to fill in the ten frame accordingly. For example, when you show the number 3, they should place three counters or marks on their ten frame. Encourage them to start filling from the top left corner. For number 7, they should fill all five spaces in the top row and add two more in the second row. This activity helps students visualize numbers and understand the concept of counting and arranging numbers up to 9. Prepare different scenarios for each student to ensure everyone gets a chance to participate. You can use real objects like counters or draw the ten frames on a whiteboard or paper.

Fun with Ten Frames – Ten frames are exciting! – Play a matching game – We’ll match numbers to filled ten frames – Match ten frames to numbers – I’ll say a number, you show the frame – Listen and find the right frame | This slide introduces a playful activity to help Kindergarten students understand the concept of ten frames and how they represent numbers up to 9. The matching game involves the teacher calling out a number, and students selecting the ten frame that represents that number. This interactive approach reinforces number recognition and counting skills. Prepare several ten frames with different numbers of filled spots for the activity. Encourage students to participate and praise their efforts to build confidence. Possible variations of the activity could include students drawing their own ten frames, using physical objects to fill the frames, or pairing up to challenge each other.

Class Activity: Ten Frame Fun! – Create your own ten frame – Use stickers for numbers – Each sticker represents one unit – Fill the frame to show 9 – Place 9 stickers in the ten frame – Show different numbers up to 9 – Practice with numbers less than 9 too | This activity is designed to help Kindergarten students visually understand the concept of numbers up to 9 using a ten frame. Provide each student with a blank ten frame and a set of stickers. Instruct them to place the stickers on the ten frame to represent different numbers, ultimately aiming to show the number 9. This hands-on activity will reinforce their counting skills and their ability to recognize numbers in a ten frame format. For differentiation, some students can work on filling the frame to less than 9, while others can challenge themselves to quickly identify the number of stickers at a glance. Encourage students to explain their process and ensure they understand that each spot on the ten frame corresponds to one unit.

Review and Goodbye – Excellent work today, class! – We used ten frames for numbers 1-9 – Ten frames help visualize numbers easily – Keep practicing at home – Try using objects like toys to practice – Excited to see you all next time! | Today’s class was a success, and the children have learned to use ten frames to represent numbers up to 9. It’s important to encourage them to continue practicing at home, possibly with the help of their parents, to reinforce their understanding. Suggest using small objects like toys or candies to fill in their own ten frames. This will help them grasp the concept of counting and number representation in a fun and engaging way. In the next class, be prepared to review this concept and introduce new activities to further their skills.
