Count Forward - Up to 1,000
š Entering the Hundreds! The numbers are getting gigantic, but the pattern of how numbers work is exactly the same as always.
Concept
You know how to count from 1 to 100 perfectly. 1, 2, 3... 98, 99, 100! But what happens next? šÆ **The Hundreds Pattern:** The number 100 is just a new starting block. You just start counting by ones all over again, but you say the word "One-Hundred" first! * 100. * One-hundred and one (101). * One-hundred and two (102)... * ... One-hundred and ninety-nine (199). **What happens at 199?!** You run out of ones. You run out of tens. The Hundreds dial clicks over! * **199 rolls over to -> 200!** (Two-Hundred). Then you start all over again. (201, 202...)
