What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students find how many more are needed to make 10 when given a number from 1 through 9. They can use counters, fingers, drawings, or number sentences.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students find the missing addend for any starting number from 1 through 9. They show the answer with objects, drawings, fingers, or an equation and explain how they know.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may count to 10 but give the total instead of the missing part. They may also reverse familiar pairs or miscount when using fingers or objects.
How to Assess It
- Give each student the prompt, “You have 6 counters. How many more make 10?” Ask them to show and write 6 + __ = 10.
