Easy-to-follow teaching directions for compelling, engaging lessons! 
From “Look, Quick!” to “Mystery Sums,” the twenty classroom-tested lessons in It Make Sense: Using Ten-Frames to Build Number Sense provide friendly, meaningful support for using ten-frames. 
Many state standards require students to solve addition and subtraction problems using models. Ten-frames are one of the most important models that teachers can use to help students anchor to the landmark number ten and develop all aspects of number sense. Additionally, state standards expect that students become fluent and flexible in their ability to compute numbers. Ten-frames help students develop the skills they need to become flexible and fluent problem solvers. 
A wealth of teacher supports 
The step-by-step lessons are presented in three categories: Routines Games Problem-solving activities 
The lessons are intentionally designed to provide students with opportunities to think, reason, and communicate about numbers. The lessons offer a wealth of teacher support, including: strategies for differentiating instruction assessment rubrics examples of student thinking technology tips teacher reflections reproducible ten-frames, ten-frame cards, and computation cards that are also available in a downloadable, printable format

A superb resource for teachers! 
From "Building a Wacky Hundreds Chart" to "Number Chart Bingo!," the twenty classroom-tested lessons and games in It Makes Sense: Using the Hundreds Chart to Build Number Sense transform the hundreds chart from a poster on the classroom wall into a hands-on, interactive tool used by both teachers and students. 
The hundreds chart is one of the most important tools teachers can manipulate to help students think about our base ten number system and to build a mental model of the mathematical structure of it. Working with the hundreds chart helps learners develop the skills they need to become flexible and fluent problem solvers and meet the requirements of many state standards.

Strengthen teaching and deepen learning of number skills and concepts From "Mystery Number" to "Hot Lava Bridge," the forty classroom-tested lessons in It Makes Sense: Using Number Paths and Number Lines to Build Number Sense promote the flexible use of number paths and number lines to solve problems and scaffold or document students' thinking. A wealth of teacher supports The step-by-step lessons are presented in three categories: <ul> <li>Introductory ideas (focused on the structure and use of number paths and number lines)</li> <li>Lessons (activities that encourage the use of the tools for thinking about numbers, their magnitude, and their relationship to each other)</li> <li>Games (opportunities for students to develop numerical fluency, think strategically, and play cooperatively)</li> </ul> The lessons offer a wealth of teacher support, including: <ul> <li>strategies for differentiating instruction</li> <li>key questions to promote student thinking</li> <li>"A Child's Mind" insights sharing common student misconceptions</li> <li>"Math Matters!" tips highlighting mathematical definitions, research summaries, and learning scenarios</li> <li>teacher reflections</li> <li>more than thirty reproducibles, also available in a downloadable, printable format</li> </ul>

Many state standards expect students to be fluent and flexible in their ability to compute numbers and require students to solve addition and subtraction problems using models. This resource includes 20 classroom-tested lessons that provide friendly, meaningful support for using ten-frames, one of the most important models teachers can use to help students anchor to the landmark number ten and develop all aspects of number sense. Three types of step-by-step lessons—routines, games, and problem-solving activities—provide students with opportunities to think, reason, and communicate about numbers. Teacher support materials include strategies for differentiating instruction; assessment rubrics; examples of student thinking; technology tips; teacher reflections; and reproducible ten-frames, ten-frame cards, and computation cards.
