1st Grade Math: Make Ten, Double It
Six scripted lessons that replace counting every dot with two shortcuts, making ten and doubles, with every student page in three levels.
How it works
Every lesson follows the same calm pattern, so your group always knows what comes next and you never have to plan.
Teach once
Open the grown-up page. It tells you what to say, what to watch for, and gives answers for all three levels.
Pick a level
Circle gives more support, triangle is on level, star is a stretch. Same skill, same day.
Short lessons
About 15 to 20 minutes each, with big boxes to write in and a picture whenever it helps.
What's inside
Using it
Go at your learner's pace, one step or one page at a time. Read the grown-up guide once and you're ready, no teaching background needed.
Run it as an intervention, a small group or independent practice. It prints clean on the school copier.
Questions
Is this a full curriculum?
It is one complete first grade math skill, taught in six lessons. Each title in the 1st Grade Math series covers a different skill, so together they cover the whole first grade year.
How do I choose a level?
Start at triangle. If a page is easy and correct, move up to star. If it brings tears, step down to circle. The skills match, so moving is easy.
Do I need any other materials?
A pencil. For warm ups, 20 small things in two colors (cereal, buttons, blocks) are helpful. Nothing to buy or cut.
Can I print only one level?
Yes. Each lesson has one grown-up page, then the circle, triangle and star pages. The Start Here page lists the exact pages.
How do I get my files?
Right after checkout you'll see download buttons, and we email you a link too. Everything is saved in My Library to re-download anytime.
Will it print in black and white?
Yes. Every page is designed to print clean in black and white on a home printer or a school copier.
Can I use it with a whole class?
Yes. One purchase covers one classroom or one family. Buying for several teachers or a whole school? See school licenses.
What if I have a problem or a question?
Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final. If something isn't working the way you hoped, or you have any question at all, email hello@wiggle-wise.com and we'll help.
