Ten Frame--Modeling Sums within Twenty-Image 21

Topic

Numbers and Operations

Description

This math clip art image showcases the sum of two addends on two ten frames. The first addend is depicted by 12 red counters, filling the entire first ten frame and placing two on the second. The second addend is represented by 2 yellow counters on the second ten frame. This visual model effectively illustrates the addition problem 12 + 2 = 14, further reinforcing addition within 20.

As the twenty-first image in the series, it continues the pattern of increasing sums with 12 as the first addend. This progression helps students visualize how adding one more to the second addend affects the total sum, building upon their understanding of teen numbers. The series as a whole supports the development of number sense, addition strategies, and the understanding of place value concepts.

Incorporating math clip art in mathematics instruction is crucial as it provides a tangible, visual representation of abstract numerical concepts. These images are particularly beneficial for visual and kinesthetic learners, helping to bridge the gap between physical manipulatives and symbolic mathematics. They also serve as excellent prompts for mathematical discussions, pattern recognition, and problem-solving activities in the classroom.

Teacher's Script: "Take a close look at this ten frame picture. How many red counters do you see? And yellow counters? How has this picture changed from the previous one? 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? Can you predict what the next sum will be?"
