10 Frame Unit Plus

10 Frame Unit Plus 

Teach young children about number combinations to 10 and lay the foundations of mathematical understanding using our wooden ten frames.

Ten Frames are perfect to use at home or in the classroom and offer an effective and simple way to learn about numbers. They help children “see” what they are learning and are ideal for exploring early maths concepts such as counting, number recognition, number bonds and so much more.

Our Ten Frame is made from sustainability sourced wood. A wonderful natural maths resource which can be passed through generations to aid maths learning within children.

Features: 

• Material: Wood 
• Measurements 2 x Ten frame board
  • • wooden number discs 0-10
    • 20 wooden pegs
    • Draw string bag for storage 
      
    • +,- & = discs

What our OT says: 

• Visual Representation for Bonds of 10: 10 frames provide a clear visual representation of numbers and their relationships. Each frame consists of ten circles arranged in two rows of five. When children place counters or objects in these circles, they can easily see how numbers combine to make 10
• Concrete Learning Tool: We as Ot's appreciate tangible tools that engage children in hands-on learning. 10 frames fit this criterion perfectly. By physically manipulating counters or other objects within the frame, children experience concrete learning. They develop a deeper understanding of number concepts, quantity, and mathematical relationships. The tactile experience of placing counters in the circles reinforces the abstract idea of number bonds and helps solidify mathematical concepts.
• Fine Motor Skills and Coordination: Using 10 frames involves fine motor skills as children place and arrange counters. This activity supports hand-eye coordination, finger dexterity, and precision As children move counters from one circle to another, they enhance their bilateral coordination (using both hands together) and laterality (understanding left and right)
• Self-Regulation and Focus: Children learn to regulate their attention and arousal level while working with 10 frames. Focusing on the task at hand and maintaining postural control are essential skills. The process of counting, arranging counters, and making 10 encourages concentration and self-regulation.
• More than one player: With 2 boards this is perfect for two players when doing group work. Comparing different bonds of 10 can make this an interactive activity and perfect for group work.
