Penny's Pigeon Park: All the Ways to Make 10

Penny the penguin is at the park, where 10 pigeons split between the water and a bench. Kindergarteners warm up with 1 more and 1 less, find the total of 6 and 4, show their own way to make 10 on a 10-frame, build 7 and 3, spot the pattern in a chart of all the ways, and make two different ways for 10 birds. Every direction is read aloud, and each wrong answer gets a spoken hint and another try.

• 16 scenes with every direction read aloud: a Number Talk warm-up, a pigeon story, four 10-frame builds and a chart of all the ways to make 10

• Add or take away 1 by saying the next number or the number before
• Find the total of a story with 6 and 4
• Show ways to split 10 pigeons between the water and the bench on a 10-frame
• Spot the pattern in all the ways to make 10, and find two different ways for 10 birds
