Ocean Number Flashcards With Ten Frame Activity
What's included?
10 large (8.5x11") printable flashcards
10 small (handheld) printable flashcards
2 Ten Frame Worksheets (black and white/color)
100 Ocean Animal Counting Pieces
How to Use:
1. Counting:
- Place a number flashcard on the worksheet.
- Have the child place ocean animal pieces in each square, one by one.
- They should count aloud as they fill in the boxes.
- This shows how numbers build up to ten.
2. Subitizing (Instantly Seeing Quantities):
- After placing the ocean animal pieces, ask the child how many they see without counting. This helps them recognize numbers visually.
3. Making Ten:
- Show how a partially filled ten frame can be “completed” to make ten.
- For example, if there are 7 ocean animal pieces, ask the child how many more are needed to fill the ten frame.
4. Addition:
- Use two ten frames or a partially filled one to show how numbers combine. For example, if you place 6 ocean animal pieces and then add 3 more, the child can easily see how 6 + 3 = 9 by counting the pieces.
5. Subtraction:
- Start with a full ten frame, then remove ocean animal pieces to demonstrate subtraction. For example, start with 10 and take away 4 pieces to show that 10 - 4 = 6.
