Teen Numbers 11 – 20 are Perfect For
This resource easily fits into your winter math plans. It’s aligned to the Common Core Counting & Cardinality standards, so you can confidently integrate it into your curriculum. Students will practice matching numerals to visual models of ten frames and dice, helping them truly understand the composition of teen numbers not just memorize them.
How It Works
Students begin on a cheerful Polar Bear home page filled with clickable snowflakes. Each snowflake links to a random math problem featuring numbers 11–20. Once students solve the problem, they choose their answer by clicking on it. If correct, a slide with a joyful “Way to Go!” pops up to celebrate their success. If they select an incorrect answer, a supportive “Try Again, You’ll Get It Next Time” message appears, encouraging perseverance.
Because the slides are self-correcting, students can work independently with confidence. They instantly see whether their answer is correct, helping them build math reasoning skills and self-monitoring habits. Teachers don’t need to grade, print, or prepare anything, it’s truly ready-to-use and saves valuable classroom time.
