Our kids really had an easier time counting larger numbers/3 addends and were quite good and looking for combinations of ten and then adding on. They also seemed to grasp that if they knew 4+6 was 10 then 4+7 was 11 much faster. I make such a big deal out of the number 10 that one of my kids bowed to it when it was written on the board!
I love these two activities. The crown was reworked a few times because when I had to fit it to their tiny heads, some combinations were covered. Now, they are smaller and fit fine and dandy. My second activity is a display with ten frames and uses the turn-around facts, too. I use sentence strips for both and when I hand the ten frame Friends of Ten up, it makes a good visual and fun display.
I just posted it to my store.
