Understanding Place Value Lesson Plan
Mathematical Goals
By the end of the lesson students will:
• Identify a two-digit number based on the amount of tens and ones
• Create a representation of a two-digit number using ten frame cards
Common Core State Standards
Understand Place Value.
1.NBT.2 Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of
tens and ones.
a. 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones – call a “ten”.
b. The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and one,
two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.
c. The numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 refer to one, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, or nine tens (and 0 ones).
Emphasized Standards for Mathematical Practice
2, Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4. Model with mathematics.
7. Look for make use of structure.
Prior Knowledge Needed

Tasks in the Lesson
Engage 10-12 minutes
Quick Images
Pass out ten frame cards to the students.
Depending on your students’ abilities your picture may be:
Level 1: Only 1 ten frame that is partially filled (1-9 dots)
