Yeah I see teachers using ten-frames, for example, to have kids count the dots then make the addition sentence for making 10. (3+ __ = 10).
I think the two go hand in hand and whenever you’re making simple addition sentences, the corresponding subtraction equation should be included.
Kids can see there were 10 but then 7 got taken away, etc. and I have 3 but I need 7 more to make 10.
