What Makes Ten?

We have been working hard on building up our number knowledge in Room 20. We're trying to get faster at working out our bonds to 10 and 20, and our doubles and halves. We need to know these pretty well to help us learn our addition and subtraction strategies.

Kahurangi group, tomorrow we're going to try and say our bonds to 10 even faster than this!
