Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to play with a super cool number: the number 10! Ten is a special number, and it’s fun to find it in different shapes and patterns. Let’s explore together!
Look at these blocks! They are in groups, and each group has 10 blocks. Let’s count the red blocks together:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Great job! Now, let’s count the orange blocks. They are in two groups, just like the fingers on your hands. One hand has five fingers, and two hands make ten!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Look at the monkey! It has five fingers, just like us. Let’s give the monkey a high five!
Now, let’s count the green blocks in a pyramid shape. Do you think there are ten?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Yes, there are 10 green blocks too! Counting can be fun when we find patterns.
Let’s go to the zoo and find groups of 10 animals! Look at all the monkeys. Can we make two rows with five monkeys in each row?
Yes, five and five make ten! Just like our fingers.
Now, let’s visit the penguins. Can you find a group of 10 penguins?
Look closely! Count to see if there are 10:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
Great job! You found the group with 10 penguins!
Thanks for counting with me today! Remember, you can find groups of 10 everywhere. Keep looking for patterns and have fun counting!
See you next time, and happy counting!
Number Hunt at Home: Go on a number hunt around your house! Look for things that come in groups of 10. It could be 10 spoons in a drawer, 10 books on a shelf, or 10 socks in a basket. Count them out loud and see how many groups of 10 you can find. Can you find more than three groups?
Build a Tower of 10: Use building blocks or any stackable items you have at home. Try to build a tower with exactly 10 blocks. Once you have your tower, try to make another one with a different shape or pattern. How many different ways can you arrange your 10 blocks?
Draw and Count: Draw a picture of your favorite animal and add 10 spots, stripes, or other features. Count them out loud as you draw. Can you draw another animal with a different set of 10 features? Share your drawings with a friend or family member and count together!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Hello, everyone! Today we’re going to work with one of my favorite numbers: the number 10. Ten is one of the coolest numbers out there, and it’s fun to find patterns and shapes that use groups of ten. Each of these blocks is in a group of ten. Even though the groups have different shapes, we can count and see that they each have 10 blocks.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
There are ten red blocks in a line. Do you think there are ten orange blocks too? Let’s count them:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.
The orange blocks are in two groups with five blocks each, just like the fingers on your hands. One hand has five fingers, and two hands make ten.
Look, that monkey has five fingers too!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Give me five, little buddy!
Now, look at this group. Do you think there are ten green blocks in this pyramid? Let’s count and see:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Yes, this group has 10 too! Sometimes you can find 10 by seeing one of these patterns. Which group was easiest for you to count?
Okay, everyone, now it’s time to find the groups of 10 animals in the zoo. Let’s use these groups to help us count and find 10 with other things too.
Look, that’s a lot of monkeys! I wonder if there are ten. If we move them around and try to put them into two equal rows, we see there are five in each row. Yes, five and five make ten.
It looks like this pattern. Our monkey friend wants us to go see the penguins. It’s your turn! Let’s go to the penguin pool and see if you can find groups of ten.
Do you see which one has ten? It’s this one! Do these groups show 10 penguins?
Now, that’s a tough one. I see two pyramids, but do they both show 10? Nope, we always count to check:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
It looks like this is the group that shows 10.
Thanks for watching, everyone, and thanks for helping me count! Look for patterns and find groups of ten. See you next time!
