Today we are going to see how many different ways we can make 10 (or 5 if 10 is a little tricky) using gold coins.
For this activity you need:
- 10 (or 5) gold coins
- a beanstalk leaf made from paper or card with a line drawn along the centre like the one below
Now I want to have 10 gold coins altogether on the beanstalk leaf.
Can you show me different ways of making up the number 10 on two sides of a beanstalk leaf?
Each time you move the gold coins remember to count them to make sure you have 10.
Here are some ways that I put gold coins onto my leaf:
How many different ways did you find to make 10 (or 5)? I found 3 different ways. Did you find more ways than me?
Here are some games for you to play:
