Addition Popplets

We have been working on simple addition within 10.  We worked on using many manipulatives and strategies to solve problems and write addition equations. We also worked on finding all the ways to make a certain sum.

I decided to have the students use the Popplet app on the iPads to demonstrate their learning.  The students selected a sum between 5 and 10.  Then they used the camera to take photos of the 2-colored dots to show all the ways to make that sum.  My students saved their photos to the camera roll and then imported them into their popplets.  We also worked on trying to type in the equations to match our dots.  Here is how a few of them turned out.
