•Sticky Nature Ten Frame• What is a ten frame?

•Sticky Nature Ten Frame•
What is a ten frame? A ten frame is a rectangle with ten equal spaces. It has five spaces on top and five on the bottom. You use counters or math manipulatives to represent numbers less than or equal to ten on the frame. Sure you can use plastic manipulatives, but we prefer to use pieces of nature😍
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
You can peel the pieces of nature off the contact paper and start a new ten frame when you are done! This would also look beautiful with colorful leaves🍃🍂🍁
