The three stages of learning numbers, and which one is hard
Counting to 100 is not one skill. It is three, and the middle one is where nearly every child slows down.
| Stage | Covers | What a child is learning | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 to 10 | The first eleven numerals and names | That the numeral, the word, and that many things are the same idea | Steady. Mostly repetition. |
| 11 to 20 | The teens | Names that do not announce their own structure | The hard part. Expect this stage to take the longest. |
| Tens to 100 | 20, 30, 40 and on to 100 | That the pattern repeats, so counting is a system rather than a list | Easier than the teens once the pattern is seen. |
Why the teens are the sticking point
English is unhelpful here. Eleven and twelve give no hint that they mean ten and one and ten and two, so they simply have to be memorised. Thirteen through nineteen do contain their parts, but in reverse: thirteen says three before ten, while twenty-three says the twenty first. A child who has just worked out the pattern in the twenties finds the teens contradict it.
Languages that name these numbers regularly, saying the equivalent of ten-one and ten-two, produce children who count further sooner. That is a fact about English rather than about the child, so a stall in the teens is expected rather than a warning sign.
Counting is also not the same as knowing how many. A child can recite to twenty and still not answer how many are on the table, because reciting the sequence and understanding that the last number names the size of the group are separate steps. Counting real objects and stopping to ask how many bridges them.
Once the tens are in place the system opens up. Sixty, seventy and eighty are transparently six, seven and eight tens, so a child who sees that stops learning numbers one at a time and starts generating them. That is the point at which counting to a hundred goes from memory work to something obvious.
