Today, we’re going to have fun learning about the number 11! There are so many cool ways to show and understand this number. Are you ready? Let’s go!
The number 11 is a special number called a “teen” number. It’s the first teen number and comes right after 10. Let’s see how we can show the number 11 in different ways!
We can write the number 11 using numerals like this: 11. We can also write it as a word: eleven. Isn’t that neat?
We can use ten frames to show 11. A ten frame is a box with 10 spaces. We fill up one whole ten frame and then add one more to make 11. Can you picture it?
A number line is like a ruler with numbers on it. We can find 11 by counting from 0 all the way up to 11. Try counting with me: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11!
We can use dice to show 11 too! If you roll two dice, you can add the numbers on top to make 11. For example, if you roll a 6 and a 5, you get 11!
We can even use our fingers to show 11. We have 10 fingers, so we can show 10 fingers and imagine adding one more to make 11. Can you try it?
Drawing pictures is another fun way to show 11. You can draw 11 stars, hearts, or any shape you like. We can also use tallies. Draw 10 lines and then one more to make 11!
Dominoes are fun to play with and can help us show 11. Find two dominoes that add up to 11, like a 6 and a 5. Can you find other combinations?
Five frames are like ten frames but smaller. We can fill up two five frames and add one more to make 11. Try drawing it out!
Numbers are all around us! We see them in the classroom, at home, and even in the sky. They help us count and measure things. Remember, 11 is a teen number, and now you know so many ways to show it!
Great job learning about the number 11 today! Keep practicing, and you’ll become a number expert in no time!
Number Hunt: Go on a number hunt around your home or classroom! Look for the number 11 on clocks, books, or even in phone numbers. Can you find 11 objects and count them out loud? Share what you found with a friend or family member.
Build with Blocks: Use building blocks or LEGO pieces to make a tower of 11 blocks. Can you make different shapes or patterns using exactly 11 blocks? Try making a line, a square, or even a small house. Count your blocks to make sure you have 11 each time!
Create a Number Story: Draw a picture or write a short story about something that has 11 items. It could be 11 stars in the sky, 11 apples in a basket, or 11 cars on a road. Share your story with your class and see what creative ideas everyone has!
