Attached below is a Kindergarten math lesson I taught during their daily center rotations. The goal of the lesson was to help students decompose numbers less than or equal to 10. This lesson served as a prelude to the introduction of subtraction and addition. Students were given the opportunity to think critically by being asked to verbalize their number combinations as well as record their combinations on a ten frame in front of them.
