Life Over C's donated one of my favorite products EVER! This is such an awesome idea and right up my alley! Interactive Ten-Frames and number bonds for your whole class to enjoy! Students will get up and moving around with this life-size ten-frame set. They can work in partners or small groups to find sums and missing addends. Create a ten frame (or double ten-frame) on your floor or wall with removable tape and print the flowers that are included in the pack on two different colors of paper. Then use the ten-frame to create number bonds from 0-20. Students will draw one of the number bond cards out of box and then set to work building it with two different colors of flowers. This hands-on activity will quickly help students visualize how number bonds and fact families work.
There are two types of number bond cards included: missing addends and missing sums. For further practice, a set of flowers and a smaller ten-frame are included for use in your math centers with the number bond cards. After your whole class or small group activity, follow up with the included number bond and ten-frame assessment sheets. To check out her freebie click here.
