Teacher Notes (not visible to students)
This activity helps kindergarten students learn to compose 10 using objects, ten frames, fingers, and drawings. Use counters, dot stickers, or simple classroom objects (e.g., cubes, blocks) and a ten-frame printable or drawn ten-frame for hands-on practice. For students who need more support, give physical counters and model forming known pairs (e.g., 7 and 3). For students who need a challenge, ask them to show two different ways to make 10 using different sized groups.
