Website Description: In this federalism lesson plan, students learn where the federal government gets its power and that government power in the United States is split between states and the federal government. They learn about express and implied powers, distinguish between federal powers and those reserved to the states (as well as shared powers), and contrast the federalist system of government with other choices the Founders might have made.

I extended off of this to add it to our development of place value, groups of ten, and extra ones. I added an additional material of a tens frame to help students see the grouping of ten and extra ones. After we worked through all the steps (1-6) I added an additional step of scenarios where additional students were added to continue working with larger numbers with groupings of tens and extra ones. As well, students who needed to work with counting on from larger two digit numbers, this activity also helped to increase that knowledge.
