How it works

The bonds to ten

There are nine pairs: 1 and 9, 2 and 8, 3 and 7, 4 and 6, 5 and 5, and the same pairs the other way round. A sheet of twenty questions asks each pair more than once, which is the point: the pairs should be known, not counted out. With a total of 100 they are the bonds to a hundred, 37 + __ = 100, and with 1000 the bonds to a thousand.

Why they matter

8 + 5 is easiest as 8 + 2 + 3: up to ten first, then the rest. That first step, knowing that 8 needs 2 to make 10, is a number bond. A child who knows the pairs can cross a ten without counting on their fingers, in addition and backwards in subtraction.
