Common Core Standards:

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.NBT.A.1: Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each composition or decomposition by a drawing or equation (such as 18 = 10 + 8); understand that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.

Targeted Needs of Student:

Quickly adding, decomposing 10, memorizing math facts, understanding the meaning of 10, exploring the possibilities of adding to make 10

Goal:

To provide students with practice combining numbers to make 10

Materials Needed:

1.      Uno Cards

Explanation/Summary:

Students will be in pairs and will lay all of the Uno cards face down in front of them. Then they will take turns flipping cards over and if those two numbers can make 10 through addition, then the student can take those two cards as a pair. If the two numbers cannot make 10 through addition, then the student has to turn the cards back over and wait until their next turn to go again. This is very similar to memory but the pairs are established through addition to make 10.
