This morning, Gracyn completed lesson 6.3, understanding the place value of tens and ones. We covered the concept that we can use different ways to write a number as tens and ones. For example, 19 is a two-digit number, the 1 in 19 means 1 ten and the 9 in 19 means 9 ones. The number 19 can also be thought of as 10 ones and 9 ones or 1 ten and 9 ones. Gracyn then practiced writing the number words 1-10 which we will continue up to 120. To correlate with number words, we played Under the Sea Numbers 1-120. In this game, number cards were spread out face down. We took turns picking a card and trying to match the number with the number word on the board. Gracyn was very good at sounding out the higher number words which are not familiar to her.
