Mathematics

• Develop fluency counting forwards in the correct order from 10 to 20.
• Identify numbers from 11 to 19 as a two-part bond made of 10 plus a single-digit number.
• Connect the length of the Bond Blocks, number name and numeral.

Language

• One longer
• One more than. Later introduce “one greater than”. For example, “17 is one greater than 16”.
• One number after.
• A number is made up of digits in the same way a word is made up of letters. The number 16 is made up of the digits one and six.
• Place value: The place of a digit in a number determines the digit’s value (worth).
• In the number 16 the digit one is in the tens place so is worth one ten, ten.
• The digit six is in the ones place so is worth six ones, six.
