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?
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?

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?
Welcome to Twoland. Every number is two more than the one before. Imagine if Two was the first friend in Numberland. Cut out the pictures and paste them on the opposite page to create a picture for Two!
Ready for lift-off? Roll a die and play a number coloring game. Here's how it works:
- Find a friend, a die. and coloring pencils. Choose who will be player 1 and who will be player 2.
- Take it in turns to throw the die. Color the parts of the picture that contain the number you roll (use the color key to help you). If they’re already colored in, miss a turn.
- The first player to color their picture is the winner!
Start at the bottom and write to finish the pyramid stacks. Two numbers below add up to the number above. Use the number line to help you! Got it? Let's try some bigger numbers!
Sing along with all your square friends... right up to One Hundred. Can you figure out how many blocks wide and tall all the squares are?
"Even though we're different sizes,
you can always recognize us.
We're as tall as we are wide,
We're the same turned on each side."
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!
Join Numberblock Fourteen at the skate park! Help Fourteen finish the doubles by tracing the numbers and filling in the gaps. Cut out Fourteen and his lucky Double Sevens and have fun whizzing them about the halfpipe ramps below.
Sing Fourteen's song:
I'm 14, I'm 10 and 4, I'm also double 7!
I'm riding on an elevator straight to skater heaven!
And whenever I get into a fix,
in the middle of one of my brand-new tricks,
I've got my lucky double to get me out of trouble...
Lucky double Seven!
