Description

A tens frame is a simple yet very effective tool for playing with numbers up to five, ten and on the iPad up to twenty. This app provides a tens frame and ten counters, five blue and five green. How could my child use a tens frame? Here are some ideas! Check that the student can recognise the number of dots on a tens frame card instantly without counting. Addition: Make sure the students understands that the dots plus the spaces equal ten. Practise all the combinations that make ten. Subtraction: Place all ten dots on the frame and ask the students to imagine taking off some dots. For example, for ten minus six the students imagine six dots removed and see that there are four dots left. Check this by actually removing six dots. This leaves four dots exposed. Practice all 12 combinations of every basic fact. For example the basic fact 2 + 8 = 10 is linked to all these problems: 2 + 8 = ?           ? + 8 = 10       2 + ? = 10        8 + 2 = ? ? + 2 = 10        8 + ? = 10        10 – 8 = ?        ? – 8 = 2 10 – ? = 2        10 – 2 = ?        ? – 2 = 8          10 – ? = 8

Needs only a little improvement to be better!

anotherteacher · 14 years ago · v1.1

I was excited to finally see a tens frame app, however, was dissapointed after buying it. It seems to only allow 5 counters of one colour, and 5 of another, which makes showing 8+2=10 difficuilt (youd have five blue, 3 orange, and have to add 2 more orange. Better to have 9 or 10 of each so that its easier to show combinations of numbers over 5. Just do that, Matthew Thomas and Ill give you 3 stars!

Needs a clear button

CrisG1 · 14 years ago

This app would be great if it had a clear button and if the tokens were significantly different colors, like red and bright yellow. The light blue and lavender are hard to distinguish when my iPad is under a document camera, displayed on a projector.

Ok app

Himvcrec · 14 years ago

This app would be so much better if it used brighter colors-red and yellow for kids with visual impairments - and if it had optional sound and numbers on the 10 frame. Make a multi-sensory tool for lots of users please:))

Not much to it, waste of money. Needs example problems or equations to make it better.

Good K tool

I am looking forward to using this in my classroom. It would be helpful to have ten monsters of each color so that you can show all of the ways to make a number.

Great!

This could work great in the classroom -- except were limited to 5 + ____ (another number). Currently were unable to add 6 plus another number because there are only 5 aliens of each color. Change this (i.e.: 10 aliens of EACH color) and this could be a very useful tool for teaching adding and/or subtracting. Note: LOVE the fact that we have the option of hiding the tens frame.

Monster 10 frame

treefrog10 · 13 years ago

This app allows a student to move tiles to a frame to complete the ten frame or the two ten frames. This means the student is counting on, from whatever they set the frame to hold. That seems to be it. There are no problems provided, such as 6 + ? = 11, and no way to check answers. There is no subitizing practice, which is important. The monsters are cute, but are merely virtual tiles. Hopefully improvements will be made to improve this app - in the meantime, there are free apps that do what this does.
