Understanding Place Value 1.NBT.2 Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones. Understand the following as special cases: A. 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones—called a “ten.”
Unitize a Ten In Kindergarten, everything was thought of as individual units: “ones”. In First Grade, students are asked to unitize those ten individual ones as a whole unit: “one ten”.

Make Ten
Ten and Some More 1.NBT.2b The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.
Ten and Some More
Double Ten Frames
Terrific Tens...Teens Understand that when adding ten to a single digit number, the sum is a “teen” Hold the double ten frames so that the full-ten is on the left and the partial ten is on the right to mimic the way we write double-digit numbers
Tic-Tac-Ten
Composing Tens 1.NBT.4 Add within 100… First Grade students use concrete materials, models, drawings and place value strategies to add within 100 Single digit addition-making tens Concept that 9+3 = 10+2
Double Ten Frame =
Nine Plus a Number Teacher led small group activity Double ten frame with nine filled in Student rolls a die and places that number of counters on the second ten frame Slides one counter to “make ten”
