Lesson Plan

1Opening (3 min)

Welcome to today's BibleMouse math adventure! Let's review our previous lesson about building with tens and ones.

💭 Review Question: Can you show me how many ones make a ten?
2Teaching (10 min)

Today we'll learn how to bundle our ones into groups of ten, just like organizing God's blessings!

📌 Key Talking Points:
  • 10 ones can make 1 ten
  • Bundling helps us count more efficiently
  • Each bundle represents an important group
💬 Discussion Questions:
  • What happens when we have more than 9 ones?
  • How can we make counting easier?
3Activity: Tens and Ones Bundling Game (12 min)
hands-on

Students will practice bundling ones into tens using manipulatives

📝 Instructions:
  1. Gather loose ones
  2. Count to 10
  3. Bundle those 10 ones into a 'ten' stick
  4. Record the new number on your place value mat
🔄 Variations:

Simpler: Use fewer blocks, focus on basic bundling

Challenge: Create larger numbers, multiple bundles
