Monday: Make a ten

Bennie the Bear has 8 apples in his basket.

Rosie the Rabbit hops up the trail with 5 more apples.

"How many apples now?" asks Rosie.

"I will fill a ten first," says Bennie with a smile.

"Then I just count the apples that are left over."

Learn it: make a ten

Bennie has 8 apples and gets 5 more.

He moves 2 apples to fill the ten-frame.

Now he has 10, with 3 apples left over.

A ten-frame with eight red counters and two gold counters

10 and 3 more make 13. So 8 + 5 = 13.

Two ten-frames: one full, and three more counters
