Program Features
This is the heart of the Mathseeds world—150 math
lessons that travel through 30 exciting maps.
Kindergarten
Lessons 1–50 teach students fundamental number skills
including number recognition, number words, and
counting. Students learn to count forwards and backwards
to 20 with condence. Addition to 10 is introduced, as well
as basic 2D and 3D shapes.
Grade 1
Lessons 51–100 teach students to count to 100, order
numbers, and identify ordinal numbers up to 10th.
Students learn to identify money (bills and coins) and
investigate fractions. Subtraction, skip counting, early
multiplication, and division are introduced.
Grade 2
Lessons 101–150 teach students to count to 1,000,
identify odd and even numbers, and round to the
nearest 10 and 100. Students also develop addition and
subtraction strategies and continue to practice grouping
and sharing. Fractions, measurement, telling time, and
data are also covered.
Grade 3 coming soon!
The Playroom
Includes more than 70 activities, ten great
songs, and a collection of number books. The
virtual playroom is where early math learners
can play with numbers, shapes, and patterns.

new looks for their avatar and on decorations
for their tree house.
My Avatar
Students can create their own acorn character
with customized features and accessories.

Add and subtract tens
Use the split strategy and the
jump strategy to add tens to a
number or take away tens from
a number.
Song: Adding Two Numbers
Together
add a group of tens to a number using
Base Ten blocks and a number line. Take
a group of tens away from a number
using a 100 chart.
Worksheet 1
Split strategy
Addition:
Fill the Ten, Add Tens,
Counting by 5s, Jumping
Beans
Make a ten to add two
numbers. Add a group of tens
to a two-digit number. Count
by fives to add. Add a group to
a number to find the total.
make ten and count how many left to
find the total. Add tens and then ones
to find the answer. Count groups of 5
items to find the total. Count and add a
group to a given number.
Worksheet 2
Number lines
Operations:
Subtract Tens, Fact
Dominoes, Are They Equal?
Subtract a group of tens from
a group of tens. Complete
the related facts sums using
dominoes. Compare equations
using =, + and – symbols.
count how many tens, how many
fell over and how many left. Find the
correct domino to give the answer to
the related facts. Recognize whether
two sums are equal.

Learning objectives
Children will:
add a group of tens to a two-digit number.
take a group of tens away from a two-digit number.
use the split strategy with Base Ten blocks.
jump along number lines & the hundred chart.
Common Core State Standards
Number & Operations in Base Ten
Use place value understanding and properties of
operations to add and subtract.
1.NBT.C.4 Add w ithin 100, including adding a two-digit
number and a multiple of 10, using concrete models
and strategies based on place value and properties of
operations.
1.NBT.C.6 Subtract multiples of 10 in the range 10–90
from multiples of 10 in the range 10–90 (positive or zero
differences), using concrete models and strategies based
on place value and properties of operations.
Key vocabulary
+, =, numbers 1–100, tens, ones, number line, –, hundred
chart, sum, ten frame, dominoes, related facts, equal,
place value
Extra assistance
When moving to operations with two-digit numbers there
should be a progression of difficulty in the problems posed.
Begin with adding or subtracting a one-digit number so
the ones total stays within the decade (basic facts to 10);
then add or subtract a one-digit number involving bridging
10 (split strategy and trading). Next, have students add
and subtract tens with two-digit numbers (split and jump
strategies). Finally, put it all together with addition and
subtraction of two-digit numbers.
Classroom activities
Jump to it!
Draw a large number line on the playground from 1–100.
Ask a student to stand on a given number. Give that
student a tens number (10, 20, 30 etc) and ask them to
jump ahead that many tens to find the total. Next have a
student choose a number and take away a tens number by
jumping back along the number line.
Count ‘em!
Give students 10 ones and 10 tens in Base Ten blocks,
plus a place value mat. Write a sum on the board adding
a two-digit number and a tens number. Have the students
put each number on the mat in blocks, then count to find
the answer. Next, put up a subtraction with a two-digit
number minus a ten. Put the first number on the mat and
take away the ten.

What educators are saying:
It is very interactive and makes learning
fun! I love that I can also search and nd
lessons that cover the skills I am currently
teaching so that I can show my kids on
the Smart Board. My kids also enjoy that
within one lesson there are a variety of
different math skills.
Claire M, Wahl-Coates Elementary, NC
Mathseeds is an incredible program that
not only helps struggling scholars develop
the necessary skills in a fun and engaging
way, but helps to differentiate and
strengthen skills for scholars who have
already mastered taught skills.
