Cluster 1: Work with numbers 11–19 to gain foundations for place value. (Major Cluster)Archived

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.

Formative Assessments

Ten Ones and Some Other Ones:

Students use cubes to make a set of 10 ones and other ones to represent the number 17 and then write an equation or draw a picture that reflects this decomposition.

Type: Formative Assessment

Make Tens and Ones:

Students use a ten frame to decompose 12 into tens and ones.

Type: Formative Assessment

Decomposing 15:

Students are asked to break 15 into a group of 10 and some further ones.

Type: Formative Assessment

Composing 13:

Students are asked to compose 13 by using a group of 10 and some other ones.

Type: Formative Assessment

Lesson Plans

How many MORE ones than ten?:

Students will review the procedure for using a ten-frame. Students will be introduced to the important foundational concept for place value that numbers are composed of tens and some more ones. Students will practice subitizing skills (the ability to "instantly see how many") using a ten-frame and counters.

Type: Lesson Plan

Working with Teen Numbers:

This lesson uses manipulatives, drawings, expressions and equations to provide understanding of the composition of teen numbers as a unit of ten and a group of ones.

Type: Lesson Plan

Fireflies - Numbers 11-19:

In this lesson, students will manipulate beans (fireflies) to represent numbers 11-19 as a unit of ten and a group of ones.

Type: Lesson Plan

Decompose That Teen Number!:

The students will receive explicit instruction from the teacher on the definition of decomposing a number and how to represent a decomposition with manipulatives, drawings, and equations. The students will use linking cubes to reflect numbers from 11-19, and to show their understanding of how to decompose a number. Students will record decompositions as an equation.

Type: Lesson Plan

Ten and Some More (Exploring Numbers 11-20):

In this lesson, students will represent numbers 11-19 using a unit of ten and a group of ones using objects. As an optional extension task, students will be challenged to use their knowledge of numbers 11-20 represented as a unit of ten and a group of ones to complete posters in a mock real-world situation involving free tickets.

Presentation/Slideshow

Regroup Ones as Tens:

This quick slide show demonstrates for students how to use base ten blocks to regroup, trade, or change groups of 1's into 10's. When you have more than 10 ones base ten blocks, students should regroup or change, 10 ones to 1 ten. User clicks through the slides.
