standard_description: Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each composition or decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 18 = 10 + 8); understand that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.
problem_activity: Ellen and Mundi each want to write a pattern that is 10 numbers long.
Ellen writes 0 as her first number and adds 2 each time to get her next number.
Mundi writes 0 as his first number and adds 6 each time to get his next number.

a.   Complete Ellen and Mundi’s patterns.
b.   How many times greater is Mundi’s fourth number than Ellen’s fourth number?  What about the seventh numbers? The tenth numbers?
c.   What pattern do you notice in Part (b)?  Why do you think that pattern exists?
