Mrs Kerr tells us which number we are making. Today we are making 14. I can get 14 beans and put them on my whiteboard. Then I write the number 14. Next Mrs Kerr says to move some away. I have moved 4 away and there are 10 in the big group and 4 in the little group. I can write the number sentence 10 + 4 = 14.
"I like to write the number 14 on my whiteboard because number 14 is tricky. Next I am going to make 14 with the beads on the string. I am going to do 14 yellow and then 14 red."
