This is a lesson about the power of grouping numbers into ones, tens, and hundreds. The story describes the terrible dilemma faced by Lady Di as she attempts to feed the large number of guests that arrive for King Arthur's birthday party. The knights attempt to help her count the guests by arranging the people in different ways until a final solution is found by using the power of ten and place value. The children are then given the opportunity to count people arriving from other lands by using place value blocks. Finally, the children make a number and have just a few more guests arrive from the land of Addington. They can then fill up their place value houses and watch as they must shift or regroup the people to make them fit into the proper houses.
