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: Warm-up
This warm-up encourages students to analyze the structure and value of expressions, and to connect them to the process of calculating a mean.  Each expression has one obvious reason it does not belong, however, there is not one single correct answer.
As students discuss in small groups, listen for ideas related to finding the mean of a data set. Highlight these ideas during whole-class discussion.
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2–4. Display the expressions for all to see. Give students 1 minute of quiet think time, and ask them to indicate when they have noticed one expression that does not belong and can explain why. When the minute is up, ask them to share their thinking with their small group, and then, together, find at least one reason each expression doesn't belong.
Student Facing
Which expression does not belong? Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
\(\displaystyle \frac {8+8+4+4}{4}\)
\(\displaystyle \frac {10+10+4}{4}\)
\(\displaystyle \frac {9+9+5+5}{4}\)
\(\displaystyle \frac {6+6+6+6+6}{5}\)

Activity Synthesis
Ask each group to share one reason why a particular expression does not belong. Record and display the responses for all to see. After each response, ask the class if they agree or disagree. Since there is no single correct answer to the question, attend to students’ explanations and ensure the reasons given are reasonable. If students give unsubstantiated claims, ask them to substantiate them.
At the end of the discussion, ask students which expression or expressions most represent how they would find the mean of a data set. There is a reason each expression (other than C) could represent how they would find the mean of a data set, however, highlight reasoning about the number of terms in the numerator being the same as the value of the denominator (e.g., there are 5 terms in the numerator and the denominator is 5).
