Introduction

1

The Teen Numbers (11–19)

Numbers 11 through 19 are called "teen" numbers. They are formed by combining ten with a unit: eleven (10+1), twelve (10+2), thirteen (10+3), fourteen (10+4), fifteen (10+5), sixteen (10+6), seventeen (10+7), eighteen (10+8), nineteen (10+9). 20 is the first two-digit multiple of ten.

Balloon Festival — Pop the Balloons!

Twenty colorful balloons are floating in the sky — one for each counting number. In Practice mode the balloons pop in order while you hear each number spoken aloud. In Exercise mode, pop the balloons yourself in the correct order: 1, 2, 3 … all the way to 20. Can you pop every balloon without making a mistake?
