Bonds of 5: Racing Cars
Mathematics
Develop fluency with two-part bonds of 5.
Language
- part-part-whole where the two parts are a bond of the whole number
- equal, equivalent, is equal to
- five frame
Differentiation

Working Memory Support: build a wall
Build a wall of 5 that requires students to use the commutative property of addition to identify two-part bonds. Use one of each block from 1 to 5. Keep this on the game board whilst playing. The bond wall is a visual to support students with working memory difficulties. Using the bond wall helps to free up the working memory to focus on applying the bond.
Progression
Once fluent with bonds of 5 apply them to addition in the next activity. Go to
