Make an extra copy of the apples, pumpkins, and seeds; make a copy of the part, part, whole apple and the part, part, whole pumpkin. Laminate your copies. First, use either the part, part whole apple or the part, part whole pumpkin during group work. Explain parts and whole. Use a dry erase marker to write numbers that add up to 10 on the parts circles. After your students understand the concept of parts and whole and adding to make 10, give them either an apple or a pumpkin paper with number 10 number bonds. Also, give them either apple or pumpkin seeds. The seeds have numbers 0 to 10. Allow your students to cut the seeds and paste them on the empty circles of the number bonds to create 10. Help any child who needs help cutting out the seeds.

Next, cut out the apples, pumpkins, and seeds that you laminated. Stick Velcro on the empty circles of the number bonds. Stick Velcro on the back of the seeds. Place either the apple or pumpkins and the seeds in your math center. Allow children to Velcro the seeds to the empty circles of the number bonds on the pumpkin or apple to create 10 on their own.
