Welcome to Our Fun Counting Adventure!

Hello, friends! I’m Toby, and I’m so glad you’re here with me. Sometimes, when I can’t fall asleep, I like to count sheep. Would you like to count sheep with me? Yay! Let’s do it together!

Counting Sheep by Tens

Did you know that counting can be super fun? Today, we’re going to count in a special way. We will count by tens! That means we jump from one number to another by adding ten each time. Let’s start with the number 10. Are you ready? Let’s go!

Let’s Count Together!

Here we go: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100. Wow, you did an amazing job counting with me!

Counting by tens is like taking big steps. It helps us count faster and reach bigger numbers quickly. Isn’t that cool?

Time to Say Good Night

Thanks for counting sheep with me. I’m feeling sleepy now, and I hope you are too. Counting can be a great way to relax and get ready for bed. Good night, everyone! Sweet dreams!

Thank you for joining our counting adventure. See you next time!

  • What other things can you think of that we can count by tens? Maybe toys, books, or something else?
  • Why do you think counting by tens helps us count faster? Can you think of a time when counting quickly might be useful?
  • Have you ever tried counting something to help you relax or fall asleep? What was it, and did it work for you?
  1. Counting with Objects: Gather some small objects like blocks, buttons, or coins. Ask the children to group them into sets of ten. Once they have several groups, practice counting by tens together. For example, if they have 5 groups of ten, they can count 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. Encourage them to notice how quickly they can count a large number of objects by using groups of ten.

  2. Number Line Jump: Create a large number line on the floor using tape or chalk, marking numbers from 0 to 100. Have the children take turns jumping from one number to the next by tens. As they jump, they should say the numbers out loud: 10, 20, 30, and so on. This physical activity helps reinforce the concept of counting by tens and makes it fun and memorable.

  3. Counting in Nature: Go on a nature walk and look for things you can count in groups of ten, like leaves, flowers, or stones. Encourage the children to collect or point out items and then count them by tens. Ask questions like, “How many groups of ten do we have?” and “What number do we reach when we count by tens?” This activity helps children apply counting by tens in real-world settings.

Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

Welcome to Kids Academy!

Hi there, it’s me, Toby. I can’t fall asleep.

I’ve heard that counting sheep can help. Will you count sheep with me? Great! I was hoping you would.

Let’s count them in groups of ten. When we count by tens, we always start with the number 10. Come on, everybody, count with me:

10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100.

I’m almost asleep now! Thanks for helping me count the sheep. Good night, everybody!

Thank you!
