Teachers, save “Make a Ten to Add with Quick Tens” to assign it to your class.

The first slide is an example. Use the Make 10 to Add strategy to expand the smaller number. For example: in 9 + 6, you would expand 6 into 1 and 5 Then move the pieces to build each number while making a ten. In the above example, you would move 9 circles over then 1 X to complete the ten. The rest of the smaller number, or Xs, will be added to the 10 for the total to type into the answer.
