This is a modification of the Helping With Math tasks, "Number Grid Puzzles," https://www.helpingwithmath.com/printables/worksheets/numbers/1nbt4-number-grid-puzzles01.htm. This activity was used with a tier 3 fourth grade intervention math group to help students count by tens in mid-decades and count forward and back by ones. I modified this activity by first having students make observations and note patterns in a hundreds chart; specifically encouraging students to note that counting on by ten ones increased the tens digit by one. Students then modeled this concept with base-ten blocks. Finally, students completed the hundreds chart number puzzles to reinforce this concept and wrote matching equations when a puzzle was solved. For example, "47 = 35 + 12."

The goal of summarisation is to capture the essence of the text clearly and concisely. The ability to summarise has significant benefits for comprehending and ultimately retaining and recalling information. Teaching students to effectively summarise helps them learn to synthesise information, a higher-order thinking skill which includes analysing information and identifying key concepts. 5-4-3-2-1 can be used when first introducing the skill of summarising. The idea is to give students a chance to pick out some key ideas, tap into their prior knowledge, focus on information they find interesting and then pose a question that can reveal where their understanding is still uncertain.
