KinderMath: Combining Sets to 10

This is the last day of this unit where we use the terminology 'and' & 'make'. The kids will be combining numbers that make 10 by using the story Ten for Me by Barbara Mariconda, a number bond board and connecting cubes.  

The kids will be trying to 'hatch' an egg over the next few days. If they are successful at staying on their egg, it might just hatch before the end of the day on Friday!
