Teaching Tens And Units Year 1. In this lesson we refer to the units as red and the tens as blue. The idea is to teach children that things can be grouped into larger numbers to be more easily counted and organised.
When children count they basically learn numbers as a kind of continuum that goes on and on. We have hundreds tens and units worksheets above and we also have provided blank hundreds tens and units or ones place value charts above that you can print off and use to represent numbers.
