From November 1st through the 9th, as you add one dot per day to the top ten grid, you will want to, once again, help students focus on the filled in and the empty spaces to review combinations for ten. For example, on November 6th, we could see that 6 spaces with dots and 4 more blank spaces make 10.

Writing a full fact family for the day’s combination for ten helps students learn both the addition and related inverse subtraction facts.
