What kids do
“Count from 1 to 100. Write the missing numbers in the empty squares.”
Printed on the sheet:
- Tip: each row counts by ones. Each column counts by tens!
Teacher tip
Point out that every number in a column ends with the same digit. Kids who notice this fill the chart much faster.
How to use it
- Ask kids to touch each item as they count, and to cross it off if they lose track.
- Do one row together with a ten frame on the board so kids see the five and the ten.
- Do the first problem together under a document camera, then let kids finish on their own.
Watch for
Kids who say the numbers faster than they touch the objects. Slow the pointing down.
Talk about it
- How did you keep track of what you already counted?
- Which problem was the hardest? What made it hard?
