TEN FRAME GAMES

• Ten Frame LEGO® Build Challenge- Challenge your master builder to make a ten frame.

• LEGO® math station ten frame activity – Using a 10 or 12 sided game die, the student can roll the dice (anything over 10 is a Roll Again) and that determines the first number. The student places that many bricks into the ten frame using one color. Then the student determines the number needed to complete 10. Alternately, he or she can roll the die again and add that many bricks for a different math fact practice. The activity can also be done for subtraction: The student starts with ten 2X2 bricks in all the spots. The student rolls the die and removes that many bricks and determines how many are left.

• LEGO® ten frames 2 player game – Each player uses one color of 2X2 bricks. One player rolls a standard game die and fills in that many squares. (6 means Roll Again). The other player has to determine the correct number to make 10.

• LEGO® Number Challenge 2 Player Game – (Additional bricks are needed for this activity) The first player uses LEGO® bricks to “draw” a number from one to ten on the base plate. The other player fills in that many 2X2 counter bricks with one color and determines the number needed to reach ten by filling in empty spaces with the other colored 2X2 counter bricks.
