1 approach
Fluent adding and subtracting within 10 means answering sums and differences to 10 quickly without recounting every object from one. You may still peek at a small set of counters for a hard fact, but the goal is known pairs such as 6 + 4 and 9 − 3. We will warm up with counters, hide them for a few facts, then check a short mixed set.
Spend about 12 minutes practising addition and subtraction facts within 10, first with counters visible, then with counters hidden, writing a few equations and noting which facts still need support.
