🎉 Welcome, Math Explorers! 🎉
Today is a very special day because we are going on an exciting adventure! We’re going to discover the magic of making 10! Why are tens so magical, you ask? Well, they help us in so many ways when we add numbers together. Are you ready to become a master of addition? Let’s go!
Imagine you are in a magical forest! 🌳 In this forest, there are enchanted creatures called Addends who love to play. Their favorite game is to find pairs of numbers that add up to 10. Can you help them?
Let’s pretend that these Addends are playing hide and seek. Some of them are hiding behind trees, and some are jumping around! Your job is to find them and help them team up to make 10! 🎈
Here are the Addends who need your help:
In a moment, I will tell you which Addend is hiding behind the tree, and you will need to guess who their partner is to make 10!
For example, if I say, "1 is hiding…", you would shout, "9!" because together they make 10!
🔍 Ready? Let’s solve the first one!
“4 is hiding behind the tallest tree! Who can help 4 make 10?”
(Wait for responses and encourage everyone to answer aloud together!)
After our game, we will practice writing down our favorite Addend pairs that make 10. We can draw them, too! 📏📐
✨ Making 10 is all about teamwork! ✨
Let's see how many different pairs we can find. You’ll even get to create a colorful poster of the Addends and their matches!
At the end of our adventure, we will celebrate our discoveries with a 10 Treats Party! 🎉🍬
You all did an amazing job today, and now you are ready to add your own favorite numbers together! Remember, making 10 is not just about numbers; it’s about working together and having fun!
Let’s count to 10 together and have a great time as we learn! 🎊
