"Cross It Out"

This lesson helps first grade students develop their 'counting on' and 'counting back' strategies. It also lays a strong foundation for working with the base ten system. Teach your students how to play the game "Cross It Out" where they will be able to pick any number on a 120 chart that is greater than 11 and less than 110, and then count on 1 more and 10 more than their number and 1 less and 10 less than their number. Once your students have mastered counting on and counting back and know how to skip count by tens you can introduce this game.
