Numbers after ten are tricky: 13 is not “one-three”, it is ten and three. Each page shows one number to trace, its name, and two ten-frames: one full ten plus the extra ones. The sum 10 + 3 = 13 makes the idea clear.
What is inside
- 10 pages, one for each number from 11 to 20, with a big number to trace and three smaller ones
- Ten-frames and the sum 10 + ones on every page
- A counting page: how many dots? Write the number
- 1 answer page
Good to know
Use real objects too: ten pasta shells in an egg box and a few more beside it. Seeing and touching “ten and some more” makes the ten-frames make sense.
