Here are the bigger numbers: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. The number 10 has two parts, a 1 and a 0.
Key idea
We write 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 to tell how many.
For the grown-up: Make number cards 1 to 10 and play matching games with toys. A ten frame (two rows of five) helps: a full row is 5, so 7 is a full row and 2 more. A few problems on the screen is plenty. The real practice is with things you can touch.
- Try it at home: Match cards to piles of 6 to 10 toys.
- Put 10 stickers in two rows of 5.
- Find 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 on a clock.
