Let's solve the
Tens and Ones Worksheet step by step.
---
Understanding the Task
We are given groups of star-shaped objects. The goal is:
1.
Circle the objects in groups of 10 (make tens).
2. Count how many full groups of ten you can make → that’s the number of
tens.
3. Count any leftover stars → that’s the number of
ones.
4. Write the numbers in the boxes labeled "Tens" and "Ones".
---
Example Given
- There are 17 stars.
- We circle 1 group of 10 stars.
- Leftover: 7 stars.
- So,
1 Ten,
7 Ones.
---
Now let’s solve each problem.
---
Problem 1
Stars:
There are two rows of 10 stars each, plus 3 extra stars.
- First row: 10 stars → one group of ten
✔
- Second row: 10 stars → another group of ten
✔
- Extra: 3 stars
So:
-
Tens: 2 (two groups of 10)
-
Ones: 3
✔ Answer:
- Tens:
2
- Ones:
3

Problem 2
Stars:
There are three full rows of 10 stars each, and then some extra.
- First row: 10 stars → group of ten
✔
- Second row: 10 stars → group of ten
✔
- Third row: 10 stars → group of ten
✔
- Now, look at the last row: there are
5 extra stars.
So:
-
Tens: 3
-
Ones: 5
✔ Answer:
- Tens:
3
- Ones:
5

Problem 3
Stars:
This one has four full columns of 10 stars each, and a few extras.
Wait — let's count carefully.
Looking at the image:
- There are
four full columns of 10 stars? No — actually, it looks like
three full columns of 10 stars, and a fourth column with only
8 stars.
But wait — let’s recheck.
Actually, looking closely:
- Each vertical column appears to have
10 stars.
- There are
three complete columns of 10 stars → 30 stars.
- Then a fourth column with
8 stars → not a full group of ten.
So:
-
Tens: 3 (from the full groups)
-
Ones: 8 (remaining)
✔ Answer:
- Tens:
3
- Ones:
8

✔ Final Answers:
| Problem | Tens | Ones |
|--------|------|------|
| 1 | 2 | 3 |
| 2 | 3 | 5 |
| 3 | 3 | 8 |

📝 How to Fill It In:
For each problem, write:
-
Tens: [number]
-
Ones: [number]
And remember to
circle groups of 10 in the drawing (though we can't draw here, you would do it on paper).
