Get the pack: $7A ten frame is a box with two rows of five squares. Counters go in one square each, filling the top row from the left and then the bottom row. Because the frame always has five on top and five below, children start to see numbers as patterns: seven is a full row and two more, and nine is one square short of full.
The three blank frames are for hands-on work. The large frame has squares big enough for plastic counters, coins or cereal pieces. The page of six is for drawing dots or using stickers. The double frame is for the numbers 11 to 20: fill the first frame to make ten, then put the extra ones in the second.
The worksheets go in order. Children first count the counters on a frame and write the number, then do it the other way round and draw the counters for a number. Make 10 comes next: the empty squares show how many more are needed, which is how children learn the pairs that make ten (7 and 3, 6 and 4).
The last three sheets use what came before. One adds two small numbers on a single frame with red and yellow counters. One writes teen numbers as ten and some more. The last shows the make-a-ten way to add past ten: for 8 + 5, two of the five fill the first frame and three are left, so the answer is 13. For counting without a frame, see the counting to 10 and counting to 20 worksheets, and the picture addition worksheets for more adding.
