Teen Numbers

I am so excited!

I use a Teen Number song in my class that came from a youtube video by Harry Kindergarten. The song starts with the verse Come on everybody let's get this done, numbers in the teens they start with a 1. I love the song and so do the kids, but we focus a lot on the ten groups within teen numbers so I had to add an extra verse.

When I was viewing the video last week, I noticed that Harry was getting some negative comments on youtube because people think his song will confuse kids and won't help them learn the place value in teen numbers. I shared my second verse with him and he made a new video with it.

How awesome is that!

I don't actually sing it the way he does (just the first part was mine), but I actually like his version better. I can't wait to show it to my kiddos this week!

Here is the "second verse"
