Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction to Number 10	5 minutes	Introduce the lesson's topic. Explain the importance of forming number 10. Use visuals on the whiteboard to show examples (e.g., 7 + 3 = 10).
2	Demonstration of the Game	5 minutes	Explain how to play the "Different Ways to Form Number 10" game using playing cards. Demonstrate with a couple of examples.
3	Pair Work	10 minutes	Students pair up and use their playing cards to find as many combinations of numbers that sum to 10 as possible. Encourage them to write them down.
4	Game Competition	5 minutes	Set a timer for pairs to race against each other to see who can find the most combinations of 10. Monitor and assist as needed.
5	Wrap-Up Discussion	5 minutes	Regroup as a class. Ask a few students to share their findings. Summarise key combinations that make 10 and reinforce the learning objectives.
6	Homework Assignment	5 minutes	Distribute worksheets for students to practice forming number 10 at home. Explain that there will be a check in the next lesson without presentations.

Homework

• Students will complete a worksheet that includes exercises on forming the number 10 using different combinations. This will be collected and checked by the teacher without asking any student to present their work in front of the class.

Assessment

• Observe student participation during pair work and gameplay.
• Review the completed homework worksheets to assess understanding of forming number 10 combinations.

Reflection

• After the lesson, reflect on what went well and what can be improved for future lessons. Take note of student engagement and any difficulties encountered during the game.
