Hello, friends! I’m Bernie, and I have something exciting to share with you today. Do you like playing with a football? I sure do! But oh no, my football is flat and needs air. Can you help me pump it up?
Here’s a fun way to fill up the ball with air. We are going to count by tens! Are you ready to count with me? Let’s start!
When we count by tens, we start with the number ten. Let’s say the numbers together:
Great job! We counted all the way to one hundred, and now the ball is full of air. Thank you for helping me!
Now that our ball is ready, I’m all set for a fun game of football. I hope you had fun counting with me. See you next time for more exciting adventures. Bye-bye!
Did you know you can count by tens with other things too? Try counting your toys, crayons, or even steps as you walk. Counting by tens makes it quick and fun!
Counting by Tens Treasure Hunt: Go on a treasure hunt around your house or classroom! Find objects that you can group into tens, like crayons, blocks, or toy cars. Once you have a group of ten, count them out loud together: 10, 20, 30, and so on. How many groups of ten can you find?
Step Counting Adventure: Take a walk with a family member or friend. Count your steps by tens as you walk. For example, after ten steps, say “10,” then after another ten steps, say “20,” and continue. How far can you count? Try to reach 100 steps!
Draw and Count: Draw a picture of something you love, like a garden with flowers or a park with trees. In your drawing, include groups of ten items, like ten flowers or ten trees. Count them by tens and share your drawing with someone. Can they count by tens with you?
Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Welcome to Kids Academy! Hi there, I’m Bernie. I love football! Oh no, look at my ball—it’s flat! Will you help me pump it up with air? Great! Each time we pump the air, we’ll count by tens up to one hundred. Come on, everybody, count by tens with me!
Ready? When we count by tens, we always start with the number ten: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100.
We did it! We filled the ball with air. I’m ready for kickoff now. Bye-bye!
