About
A narrated kindergarten math lesson with Toby the Toolbox. Children count by tens to 100, show 10 blocks their own way on a two-color 10-frame and see the expression for it, pick the groups that make 10, match shapes built from 10 pattern blocks to expressions, find the missing way in an ordered chart of ways to make 10, and play Shake and Spill, Cover to work out how many counters are hiding under a cup. Every direction is read aloud, wrong answers get a spoken hint, and right answers move on.
