10 frame

In today’s lesson, I learnt something new. I learnt about 10 frame which is a must in every kindergarten class. This 10 frame helps children to understand eg. 8 is less than 10 by looking at this frame.

10 frame can be made by using egg cartons and palettes can be used to create 10 frame. Children develop number sense by using the 10 frame to count. By having children experience hands-on activity using the 10 frame, children will be able to understand different ways of making eg. 8 + 6.

We can also create number stories by using this 10 frame. This 10 frame can also be used to teach subtractions.
