Grade ones blog about making groups of ten


Kate and Zoe explain their math class today. This class happened after we spent a lot of time playing the power of ten games.
The question that Ms. Nicoll gave was- What makes ten? The rules were, that we could add or minus. We could use our fingers, our count in our heads.
We used a web to show our work.
some examples of our work are:
5+5=10
20-10=10
200-190=10
two groups of five = ten
one group of ten= ten
10+0= 10
0+10=10
3+7=10
11-1=10
6+4=10
we can have the same numbers but added in a different order still makes ten
Math is fun!
