Close the box.
Take out all the ten beads bar on the mat, organize them vertically close to each other on the left of the ten board ,close the box.
Point to the ten on the board. Ask the child: what is this?
Take one ten bar beads and place it on the left side of the board.
Point to 20 and ask: What do we have here? The child response: two tens. If the child say: twenty, it means that the presentation is too late. We can review the numbers with this presentation more quickly.
Bring down the first ten bar and take one more bar and place it next to the first bar. Say : twenty
Say: 2 tens is twenty
Repeat the same action until you reach to 90
When done
Invite the child to read all the numbers 10 to 90 and 90 to 10
Invite the child create the numbers with the beads next to the board.
Invite the child to continue work on his own.
If successful, you may continue to the next presentation

Note:
When saying the number, emphasize the word ty which also means ten.

Second Presentation:
Introducing the numbers 11 - 99
Invite a child
Introduce the material and the activity
Have the child set up a floor mat
Have the child bring the boxes one at the time to the mat.
Take out all tens and the units from the beads’ box
Organize the beads below the box: the ten bars vertically and align the units beads vertically next to the ten bars.

Take one unit bead and place it next to the ten bar. Say: eleven
Create 11 on the board and say eleven
Remove the number one card on the side facing up
Put one more unit bead and say twelve
Put number 2 on the first slot and twelve
Remove the number 2 card from the first slot and stack it on top of card number 1, facing up.
Continue the same manner until 19
When you get to 19 add one more bead unit, ask the child: How many loose beads do we have here?
The child say: 10, Tell him: we can never have 10 loose beads, do you remember the rule when we have 10 units. We have to exchange the ten units to one ten bar
Exchange

Start placing a unit to the 20 in beads to say 21 and build 21 on the board.
Continue in this manner until about 39 or until the child feels comfortable
