Track what is left to ten
Solve take-away stories and equations with starting amounts to ten using ten frames, drawings, and careful counting of the quantity that remains.
Ten frames organise starting amounts so children can remove a part without losing their place. The activities connect illustrated stories to number sentences and encourage learners to check the remaining quantity carefully.

Offer a choice of tools
Some children will cross out pictures, some will use counters, and some will count back. Teachers can invite each method; families can draw a ten frame and use coins or buttons as counters.
Guidance for parents and teachers
Use a ten frame or a neat row of counters to keep the starting amount visible while objects are removed. Encourage children to choose a representation, then recount what remains as a check. Teachers can share several solution methods; families can act out a short story with toys. Simplify by keeping the removed part to one or two. Extend by checking each answer with addition. Prompt: 'How can we prove the remaining number is correct?'
