Puzzle Talk (quick) - Making Tens

Each student gets and counts a pile of blocks (about 20 ish)

Works with a partner to see how many they have together

Discussion - 2 argumenteers

Each group gets lots more blocks and counts them

How does Alyssa's strategy make it easier to count all the blocks?

The old way of teaching math was to make you do it like a machine...

The new way is to understand it so you can build the machines!
