Perfect Ten Lab
Let's explore the magic of ten-frames and double-sided counters to master pairs that make ten!
Interactive Lessons
Slide 1 of 7
Meet the Ten-Frame
Concept Intro
A ten-frame is a grid with 10 equal spaces: 5 on top and 5 on the bottom.
We always fill the top row from left to right first, then the bottom row. This helps our brain "see" numbers instantly!
Can you count the open spaces?
5 Red + 5 Empty = 10 Spaces!
Notice how a full top row is always exactly 5. Slide 2 of 7
Rainbow Partners to Ten
Patterns
Numbers love partners! When we join Red and Yellow counters, they make exactly 10.
Red Counters Yellow Partners
9 + 1 = 10
8 + 2 = 10
7 + 3 = 10
6 + 4 = 10
Let's look at this pattern: 6 and 4
6 Red + 4 Yellow = 10!
Every red-and-yellow combination has a flip side (e.g., 4 + 6 = 10). Slide 3 of 7
Practice Time! What's the Equation?
Challenge 1
Look at the ten-frame on the right.
How many Red counters do you see?
Work with your neighbor:
Count the top row first.
Count the bottom row.
Write down the addition partner equation on a whiteboard.
? + ? = 10
7 + 3 = 10
What's another way to say this? "Seven and three make ten!" Slide 4 of 7
Find the Missing Friends!
Challenge 2
Problem A
?
?
8 + ? = 10
Problem B
?
?
?
?
?
5 + ? = 10
Think: How many more make a full ten-frame? Slide 5 of 7
Taking Away: Subtraction from Ten
Subtraction Connection
If we start with a full ten-frame (10) and take away some counters, how many are left?
Think of it like hiding a group:
If you cover the bottom row (5 counters), you still have the top row left (5 counters).
Let's try: 10 - 3 = ?
Start with 10, take away 3. We have 7 left!
Notice how subtraction undoes our addition partner connection! Slide 6 of 7

3 Part 3: The Subtraction Connection
Start with 10 and subtract! Use your addition partners to help you find the match.
10 minus 8 is:
10 - 8 =
10 minus 4 is:

Pedagogical Core
Strategy Over Speed
Traditional timed tests trigger math anxiety, blocking the working memory required to build mental relationships. Fact Launchpad substitutes speed drills with spatial reasoning and numerical breakdown models.
Rule of Thumb:
If a child takes 5 seconds but uses a deliberate strategy, celebrate it! Automaticity naturally follows recall accuracy.
Strategic Building
Students do not memorize arbitrary facts in isolation. They acquire three modular anchors that conquer any addition or subtraction equation up to 20:
Making Ten (e.g., 7 + 3 = 10)
Doubles/Near-Doubles (e.g., 7 + 8)
Bridging to Ten (e.g., 8 + 5 = 8 + 2 + 3)
Daily Flight Protocol

Mission Launch (5-10 min)
Present the lesson slides. Lead a whole-group choral count or missing partner routine on the virtual ten-frame.

Let's master the magic of matching twins (6+6, 8+8) and use them to solve "near-doubles" (6+7) in a snap!
Twin Math Strategies
Slide 1 of 5
What is a Double?
Concept Intro
A Double fact is when we add the exact same number to itself.
Your hands are a perfect double!
Let's look at 6 + 6 = 12
6 + 6 = 12
Doubles numbers always make an EVEN sum! Slide 2 of 5
Meet "Near Doubles" (Doubles + 1)
Fluency Strategy
What happens if one group has just one more counter?
We call this a Near Double . Just solve the double, then add 1!
6 + 7 = 6 + 6 + 1
Let's look at the twin blocks with +1 extra!
12 (Double) + 1 Extra = 13!
Think: "6 and 6 is 12, so 6 and 7 is 13!" Slide 3 of 5
Doubles Subtraction
Inverse Strategy
Subtraction is just un-doubling !
If you know that 8 + 8 = 16, then taking away one group of 8 leaves exactly 8.
16 - 8 = 8
Let's Try One Together!
If we know: 9 + 9 = 18
Then solve: 18 - 9 = 9!
Halves and doubles go hand-in-hand! Slide 4 of 5
Launchpad Fluency Lab Practice
Double Up!
Now head to your Double Trouble Lab center. Use mirrors and counters to match twins and beat the near-doubles puzzles!
Lab Instructions:
Draw twin rows of counters to see the double.
Spot near-doubles: "Solve double, then add 1!"
Write your equations clearly on the lab sheets.

Undo the doubles! Use your twin knowledge to solve subtraction connections.

Since 7+7 = 14: 14 - 7 =
Since 8+8 = 16: 16 - 8 =

Bridge to Ten Slides Launchpad Fluency Lesson 3
Bridge to Ten Lab
Let's learn how to break apart small numbers to make a "friendly ten" first, making addition and subtraction over 10 super simple!
The Ultimate Mental Math Trick
Slide 1 of 5
What is a "Bridge to Ten"?
Concept Intro
Some numbers are hard to add.ten (10) is always super friendly !
We "break apart" the second number so we can fill our ten-frame first.
Let's solve 8 + 5 by making 10 first!
8
5
2 3
2 + 3 = 5
Transforms to: 10 + 3 = 13!
Ten is our anchor. We always bridge to ten! Slide 2 of 5
See the Bridge in Action
Visual Guide
Why did we break 5 into 2 and 3 ?
Because 8 needs exactly 2 counters to make a full ten! The remaining 3 counters sit below.
Leftovers:
10 (Full Frame) + 3 Leftover = 13!
Breaking apart turns two steps into one easy answer! Slide 3 of 5
Bridging Down to Ten (Subtraction)
Subtraction
We can also bridge down to ten!
To solve 13 - 5, take away 3 first to make exactly 10, then take away the rest!
13 - 3 = 10
Let's Try One Together!
14 - 6 = ? Break 6 into 4 & 2
Step 1: Get to 10 14 - 4 = 10
Step 2: Subtract Rest 10 - 2 = 8!
Think: "Subtract to 10, then subtract from 10!" Slide 4 of 5
Launchpad Fluency Lab Practice
Build the Bridge!
Now move to your Bridge to Ten math center. Break down numbers, fill your frames to 10, and cross the bridge with confidence!
Lab Instructions:
Always find the number needed to make 10 first.
Break the second addend apart to fill that spot!
Be a helpful partner and double-check each step.
Let's bridge those facts! Ready, set, math! Slide 5 of 5
