Building Number Bonds

What is a Number Bond?

Each day begins with our math calendar routine and our Math in Focus lesson for the day.  We are currently practicing number bonds.  The children have been building numbers to ten and breaking them into parts in several different ways.  We have built bonds using scales, connecting cubes, teddy bears, and even pumpkins!  Ask your child to show you some number bonds at home. They are almost number bond experts!
Practice number bonds using the mathszone website:
