Teacher tip
Count the rods out loud together, then let kids march or clap on each ten.
How to use it
- Let kids trace with a finger before a pencil, so they feel the starting point.
- Pair the sheet with real counters: build the number, then write it.
- Do the first problem together under a document camera, then let kids finish on their own.
Watch for
Kids who form numbers from the bottom up. Catch it early, before the habit sets.
Talk about it
- How many more would make ten?
- Which problem was the hardest? What made it hard?
