Tag along with Terrific Ten as you read her story! It goes like this:
One day, Numberblock 10 decided to put on her special helmet. It was time for a super Ten adventure She zoomed way up high into the sky, singing, “I’m Ten and I’m flying through the sky. Today you can make 10 any way you like!"
How will Ten's friends help her?
Let's meet a friend made of ten blocks. Ten's 1 in her Numberling means 1 ten. And the 0 means nothing more! Count 10 bees and then draw around them all to make 1 ten. Count 10 butterflies and then draw around them all to make 1 ten. Now count your own fingers. Start with fingers down and put your fingers up as you count. What else do you have 10 of?
Add some big colors to these big Numberblocks. How many tens make twenty? Can you count by tens to fifty? How about backwards? Ten and another Ten is Twenty, and another Ten is Thirty. Fifty, Forty, Thirty, Twenty, Ten... Time for some Number Fun! You can count on us, we're the Numberblocks!
Let's all count to 20 in lots of different ways. Can you write and count out loud to 20 using the fingers and toes? Try it on your own fingers and toes! Next, can you count up to 20 in steps of two? How about four? Five?
Let's solve! Circle to show the right answers:
- How do you make the Numberblock 20?
- How do you make the Numberblock 30?
- How do you make the Numberblock 40?
Let's do the number rock!
The robot guards have found the friends in the Museum of Numbers! Use the number key to color the Numberblocks and the robot guards. Color the displays in any colors you like! Ask your grown-up to help cut out a tickle stick and glue it to cardboard. Tickle, tickle!
Welcome to Ten's Rocket Rides. Let's help Ten sell tickets. Ten uses a Rekenrek with red and white beads to help her make sure everyone pays the right amount.
A trip to Planet Two costs 2 pennies each. There are 2 aliens who want to ride there. Ten pushes 2 beads and
then 2 more beads to the left. How many beads did Ten push altogether?
A trip to Planet Four costs 4 pennies each. There are 2 robots who want to go there. Ten pushes 4 beads and then 4 more beads to the left. Rekenrek has 10 beads in total. How many are left behind?
It's the big game! Who's on Eleven's team? Color him in along with in his teammates One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, and Ten. How many players are on the field. Count them!
"One day, Two, Four, Six, Eight, and Ten (the "Evens"_ were hanging out, snapping their fingers like a bunch of cool cats. The friends danced their way out of the alley. The evens were all made of Twos! And if you add Ten, they're all still... made of Twos! Now it was the Odd Blocks' turn for a dance." What will happen next?
One artist correlates the ten colors to a base ten counting system and uses color to teach young children about numbers. With each color representing a number, students are able to create visual pictures of math equations and use imagery to remember important number facts. This video is excerpted from BBC News.
In Born of the Ice, Yosemite Is a Climber's Mecca, geologist Iain Stewart describes how the mountains in Yosemite were carved out by glaciers over tens of thousands of years, leaving behind boulders and waterfalls — remnants of ancient rivers. El Capitan, rising up from the valley floor, challenges climbers with its towering, vertical rock face. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Earth: The Power of the Planet, a documentary series in which Dr. Iain Stewart discovers how Earth's forces can shape nature, species, and even the climate.
