First, I formed three groups of tens in each column to make it a 30 counting collection. Then, I organized this math problem by putting five counters vertically in each group of ten to make it easier for children to count 5+5=10. I also used ten small fruits in three different colors to help the students distinguish between each group of tens. Finally, I wrote the numbers in three different colors. For example, I wrote the math problem in black, the answer in green (Group of tens), and the final answer in red.

Here is my collection. I gave the rocks to my son (preschool) and waited to see how he was going to organize them. I was expecting him to organize by color (but he didn't). Then, he was asked to count how many.

Can you tell me how many rocks you have? He just started counting. I did notice he had trouble with 15, 16, 17. I was going to repeat how many, but he beat me to it. I think next time I will give him frames or maybe a hundred chart to place the rocks on. I also wasn't sure if I needed to intervene when he got stuck on 15, 16, 17. I also used a container and asked him to count as he put them inside.

Here is my video explanation of my Lego mini figure counting collection.

# data[].attributes.body
I had 23 Lego mini figures altogether. I know this because I grouped them in 4 rows of 5 each and I had 3 leftover. I am only showing 2 ways I could have arrived at my answer: I could multiply 4x5+3=23 or 5+5+5+5+3=23.
