Maths – Partitioning 10

Thursday 04 December 2025

In Maths this week, we’ve been exploring different ways to partition the number 10. We practised finding number pairs that make 10 and talked about how to make sure we work systematically so that we don’t miss any combinations.

We used lots of representations to help our thinking, including ten frames, Multilink cubes and rekenreks, and we enjoyed spotting patterns as the numbers changed.

Help at home by challenging your child to find missing parts of 10. “What does __ need to make 10?”
