Addition of one digit numbers
1st grade children are studying about numbers 0-10 and addition of one digits number. They taught to use Cuisenaire rod for learning numbers (because children like color very much and they learned number easily using it). Then they are asked to find out what are possible ways of getting 10, 9, and 8 by adding two numbers.
It was interesting to see children figure out a pattern in adding number using Cuisenaire rods.
