- students take a turn to flip 3 cards and say the number (subitizing)
- from the 3 cards they find any matching pairs they see
- extension: find the total of the matching pair (addition)

Make 10
- use a ten frame counting card, also from your Math Kit
- students take turns to flip a dot card and take a matching number of counters, adding them to their frame
- change counter color for each new addition to the frame
- keep playing until all students make 10
- talk about the numbers needed to make 10
