Addition Using a Tens Frame

This document provides practice with adding two numbers between 0-10. This is a great worksheet for helping your child visualize groupings of 10.

Directions: Give your child an addition sentence using numbers 0-10. Encourage them to use the tens frame to organize the numbers visually. We suggest asking your child to find two addition sentences per Number Bond. This will help with number flexibility and math fluency.

Blank Number Bond (Grade 1)

It’s important for your child to see numbers as flexible, and the ways in which they can break down. This document gives your child practice with the concept of part-part and whole number relationships.

Directions: Give your child a whole number and place it in the single box. Your child will then need to decipher what two numbers (parts) make the whole number. Don’t forget to reverse the activity and ask your child to consider the parts to create the whole.

Ten Frame (Grade 1)

This document provides practice with visualizing numbers 0-10, and will help to gain a sense of ‘ten’ and place value. Your child must develop a strong sense of ‘ten’ in order for him/her to experience future success in their math education.

Directions: Let your child use physical counters (i.e.; coins, cotton balls, etc. ) to fill in the frame with the number you provide them. This will help develop a strong number sense within the context of ten, to develop mental images of numbers, and to form different strategies for manipulating the numbers.

Analog Clock Insert (Grade 1)

This document provides practice working with an analog clock.

Directions: Draw a time on the clock and ask your child to represent that time through numbers. Or, give your child a time represented through numbers and ask them to identify where the “little hand” and “big hand” point. For an extra challenge, verbally give your child a time and ask him/her to fill out the entire insert on their own.

Blank Number Bond with Two Addition Sentences (Grade 1) / h2

This document provides practice with the concept of part-part and whole numbers.

Directions: This is a flexible insert, meaning there are many ways to utilize the educational tool. We suggest asking your child to find two addition sentences per Number Bond. This helps with number flexibility and math fluency.

Hundreds Chart (Grade 1)

This document gives your child a visual reference when working with numbers 0-100. Let your child’s creativity run free when working with this document. Encourage them to naturally discover the patterns within the Hundreds Chart.

This chart is fundamental to a conceptual understanding of place value.

Bill/Coin Insert (Grade 2)

Make money make ‘cents’ for your second grader. Your child will be able to learn about coins and their value by using this graphic organizer to visually see the breakdown of a dollar.

Number Bond with Two Number Sentences (Grade 2)

This document provides practice of the part-part/whole number concept and flexible math reasoning.
Directions: Ask your child to find two addition and two subtraction sentences per Number Bond. This helps with number flexibility and math fluency. For an extra challenge, only fill in two or three spaces for your child and let him/her complete the remainder of the worksheet. Note: This is a flexible insert, meaning there are many ways to utilize the educational tool.

Place Value Chart with Tens Frame (Grade 2)

This graphic organizer prompts students to look for tens and regroup when necessary. It will help your child organize numbers in a mathematically meaningful way.
Remember to always ask your child to symbolize the number at the bottom of the page.
Note: Your child should already have extensive knowledge with working in a tens frame before using this document.

Fraction Bars (Grade 2)

Let your child practice their fine motor skills by providing them with child-friendly scissors to cut out these fraction bars.

Directions: Start by having your child compare and order the fractions. This will help to increase their understanding of fraction relationships. Making connections between various fractions will help to develop their skills in problem solving and reasoning.

Note: An alternative to cutting the document is to put it in a sleeve protector and let your child draw directly on it with a whiteboard marker.

Place Value Chart (Grade 2)

Place value is perhaps the most fundamental concept imbedded in the elementary school mathematics curriculum. Use this chart to help your child become a master of place value to the hundreds place.

Directions:
Ask your child to draw pictorial representations of different numbers, and to complete a pictorial drawing of a number by symbolizing it.

Time Interval Worksheet Template (Grade 2)

This document will help your child become familiar with the idea of elapsed time.
Directions: Give your child two different times and let them work through the problem by diagramming to discover the elapsed time. We suggest using the “fraction pie” method in this activity to help your child better understand time.

Addition Using a Tens Frame
