In this counting lesson plan, your ELs will get lots of practice identifying and writing numbers using a high interest nature focus!

Introduce place value to your emerging mathematicians while focusing on the numbers 11–20. In this lesson, students will practice separating teen numbers into 10 ones and some additional ones using unifix cubes and ten frames.

Students will get plenty of practice composing tens with ten frames to add to 20! Use this scaffolded EL Lesson alone or for more addition practice before teaching the Scavenger Hunt Addition lesson.
