Today, I will build whole numbers to 20 with base ten blocks.
Vocabulary
Teacher Resources
Base ten blocks:
Considerations: Students are provided academic vocabulary and a place value chart in their Student Journal.
Steps:
1 tens = 10
6 ones = 6
1 tens + 6 ones = 16
1. Identify the number in the tens place. Build it and record how many. 2. Identify the number in the ones place. Build it and record how many. 3. Count by tens and then by ones. Record the whole number
Application of MPs: MP1:
What steps were used today?
MP5: How did the manipulatives help you understand the problem? MP8: Did you use any shortcuts to solve the problems?
/ *MP1: Make sense of the problem and persevere in solving it! *MP8: Find a strategy to help solve the problem. Teacher: Provide students with base ten blocks to build the numbers. Directions: Use base ten blocks to build numbers to 20.
1. Build the number 15 with base ten blocks. Record the whole number.
tens +
ones =
State the objective: Today, I will build whole numbers to 20 with base ten blocks.
Explain how to build the number 15 with base ten blocks.
Represent 15 with 1 base ten block and record 1. Then represent 5 ones and record 5.
Demonstrate counting on from ten (10….11, 12, 13, 14, 15) while pointing to the blocks.
Record the whole number 15.
2. Build the number 20 with base ten blocks. Record the whole number.
tens +
ones =
Explain how to build the number 20 with base ten blocks.
Represent 20 with 2 base ten blocks and record 2. Then represent 0 ones with 0 ones and record 0.
Demonstrate counting on by tens (10….20) while pointing to the blocks
Directions: Use base ten blocks to build numbers to 20.
1. Build the number 18 with base ten blocks. Record the whole number.
tens +
ones =
2. Build the number 16 with base ten blocks. Record the whole number.
tens +
ones =
*MP3: Do you agree/disagree with what
said?
*MP6: How do you know your answers are correct/reasonable?
