Ten Frame--Modeling Sums within Twenty-Image 13

Topic

Numbers and Operations

Description

This math clip art image presents the sum of two addends using two ten frames. The first addend is shown by 11 red counters, fully occupying the first ten frame and placing one on the second. The second addend is depicted by 3 yellow counters on the second ten frame. This visual representation clearly illustrates the addition problem 11 + 3 = 14, continuing to reinforce addition within 20.

As the thirteenth image in the series, it further extends the pattern of increasing sums. This progression allows students to observe and predict how the total changes as the second addend grows. The entire series supports the development of number sense, addition strategies, and understanding of place value concepts, particularly the composition of teen numbers.

The use of math clip art in teaching mathematics is invaluable as it offers a concrete, visual representation of abstract numerical concepts. These images are especially beneficial for visual and kinesthetic learners, helping to bridge the gap between physical manipulatives and symbolic mathematics. They also provide excellent opportunities for mathematical discussions, pattern recognition, and problem-solving activities in the classroom.

Teacher's Script: "Take a look at this ten frame picture. Can you count the red counters? Now, how many yellow counters do you see? How has this picture changed from the previous ones? What addition problem does this picture represent? Let's write it as a number sentence and solve it together. What patterns do you notice in the sums as we add more yellow counters?"
