Here are some Frame, Focus and Follow-up suggestions for using this video in a math lesson.

What is Frame, Focus and Follow-up?

Frame: Sometimes people save pennies in jars or other containers. Once the jar gets filled they usually empty it to find out how much money they have saved up. How would you recommend someone go about counting and organizing a large number of pennies?

Focus: In this video segment, you will watch the CyberSquad as they count and organize a large amount of golden eggs. How does the squad use grouping to help them? Note the size of the groups they create.
