From Look, Quick! to Mystery Sums, the 20 classroom-tested lessons in this resource provide friendly, meaningful support for using ten-frames. Many state standards require students to solve addition and subtraction problems using models. Ten-frames are one of the most important models that teachers can use to help students anchor to the landmark number ten and develop all aspects of number sense. Additionally, state standards expect that students be fluent and flexible in their ability to compute numbers. Ten-frames help students develop the skills they need to become flexible and fluent problem solvers.The step-by-step lessons are presented in three categories: * routines * games * problem-solving activitiesThe lessons are designed to provide students with opportunities to think, reason, and communicate about numbers. The lessons offer a wealth of teacher support, including: * strategies for differentiating instruction; * assessment rubrics; * examples of student thinking; * technology tips; * teacher reflections; and * reproducible ten-frames, ten-frame cards, and computation cards. - from Amzon
