Task
Materials
One 10-frame per pair of students (see example below)
[IMG]
Counters, 10 per pair of students
Decks of number cards 0-5 (with 4 of each number) or two 0-5 dice
Setup
This activity is done in pairs. The students sit side by side with 10-frame and deck of cards or dice. If they have cards, the cards are shuffled and placed face down in front of them.
Action
Player 1 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many counters on the 10-frame. Player 2 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many more counters on the 10-frame next to the counters already on the ten frame. The students count the total together.
A recording sheet can be added when the students have been introduced to equations and number sentences. For those students who can handle higher numbers, a deck of 0-10 cards and two 10-frames can be used.
This game can also be played alone.


Concept/skill: 
Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings (Drawings need not show details, but should show the mathematics in the problem. (This applies wherever drawings are mentioned in the Standards.)), sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This task involves representing addition with objects such as number cards and dice.

Now, does the problem or activity shown below enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

K
standard_description: For any number from 1 to 9, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record the answer with a drawing or equation.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for making 10 when adding. These understandings help students develop fluency with operations within 20.
When students look for ways to rearrange and decompose numbers to make 10, they notice and make use of structure of expressions and whole numbers (MP7).
Launch
Display one expression.
“Give me a signal when you have an answer and can explain how you got it.”
1 minute: think time
Activity
Record answers and strategies.
Keep expressions and work displayed.
Repeat for each expression.
Student Facing
Find the value of each sum mentally.
\(4 + 8 + 2\)
\(4 + 5 + 3 + 2\)
\(9 + 3 + 1\)
\(9 + 5\)
