Counting in Groups of Ten

When you proceed to 2-digit numbers, it is useful to teach the concept of tens and ones from the beginning for a stronger foundation. The idea of tens and ones makes it easier for a child to learn double digit numbers and makes mathematical operations easy later on. "Place value" is a concept that is taught to kids in higher grades, but even small children grasp the concept of tens and ones when taught from the start. There are five aspects for the child to be able to understand place value. Counting physical quantities in groups of ten is an important step in learning and understanding place value. The crucial point in place value is that a certain position or place represents a certain size group. In this video, I have shown how I teach my child tens and ones. I have also covered the representation of groupings in the lesson.
