Put a new twist on calendar time by using a Ten Frames Calendar to teach concepts like odd and even, counting on, composing and decomposing numbers. All while making note of special school events and holidays.
A Ten Frame Calendar can help students:
- see how 10’s are built
- easily understand how to decompose numbers
- develop a deeper understanding of one more/one less and ten more/ten less
- make major school events (i.e. holidays and 1st day of school) more special
