MAPS Math Lesson Plan


Title: Making a 10 to add within 20Author: Lisa Jarvensivu
Subject(s):  Math
Grade Level(s): 2Total Time: 60 minutes

Overview / Description: In this lesson students will be working to make a 10 to add numbers with a sum within 20 along with a number talk.

Learning goals/objectives: Make a 10 to add within 20.

After completing this activity, students should be able to . . .use flexible thinking to find different ways to make a 10 when adding within 20.
