Read the book to the children. Give each child a
pipe cleaner and a small paper cup with Cheerios. Have the
children hold their pipe cleaners sideways and place 10 cheerios
on it. Ask a volunteer to come to the front of the class and
count how many cheerios s/he has on her/his pipe cleaner.
Explain to the children that this is one group of 10. Ask a
second child to come to the front, explaining that now we have 2
sets of 10, or 20 cheerios in all. Continue with student
volunteers coming to the front of the room until you have 10
children with their 10s pipe cleaners representing 100 cheerios.
