Ten is a big moment in counting because it is the first number made from two digits. Explain that the 1 means one group of ten and the 0 means nothing extra. Children have ten fingers and ten toes, which makes the idea easy to touch. A dime is worth ten cents, and bowling uses ten pins, both fun links for school-age kids. Ten is also where many hide-and-seek games start counting.
Ten frames are a classroom favorite. Draw a box of two rows with five squares each on the back of the page and let your child fill it with colored dots.

Questions parents and teachers ask
Why is 10 important in early math?
Our number system works in groups of ten, so understanding 10 helps kids with 20, 30 and 100 later. Seeing that 10 is one ten and zero ones is a first lesson in place value.
What is a ten frame?
A ten frame is a grid of two rows with five boxes each. Children put one counter in each box, which helps them see how close a number is to ten.
