Number Talks Discussion #2



This is an image of a Ten Frame. These are becoming more commonly used in the lower elementary grades to help students learn how to subitize (the ability to quickly identify the number of items in a small set without counting), gain number sense, and learn about place value.

Once students become familiar with Ten Frames, they can see that this particular image shows "2 less than 10," or "5+3," or "6+2." All of these are different ways to say "8."

Did you see "8" in a different way? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
