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.

problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to make sense of an Add To, Change Unknown story problem and identify the answer within an equation. Students are presented with a drawn representation and an equation to interpret. Students consider what each number in the equation means in relation to the story problem and drawn representation (MP2). They determine that the written equation is incorrect, and explain why using their own thinking. When students practice explaining their thinking, they begin to develop and refine their mathematical communication skills, and attend to precision (MP6). Students identify that even though Mai's equation has the correct numbers she identified the wrong number as the solution to the problem (MP3).
Students keep their books closed for the launch of the activity, as the teacher displays and reads the problem.
Action and Expression: Internalize Executive Functions.
Invite students to plan a method, including the tools they will use, for solving the rest of the story problems. If time allows, invite students to share their plan with a partner before they begin.

Mai gives him some more books.
Now he has 9 books.
How many books did Mai give him?
Lin made this drawing.

She wrote the equation
\(3 + 6 = \boxed{9}\)
Is her equation correct?

Activity Synthesis
“How does Lin’s drawing show the story problem?” (She shows the three books Andre starts with, and the six books she needs to get to nine.)
"Does Lin's equation match the story? Why or why not?" (No. The answer to the problem is how many books Mai gives Andre. That answer is 6, so the equation should be
\(3 + \boxed{6} = 9\)
.)
If needed ask, “How does this equation match the story problem?” (Andre has three books. Mai gives him six, which is the answer, so that he has nine total.)
