Change the tens digit by one and keep the ones the same. On a hundred chart, 10 more is one step down and 10 less is one step up.

Watch for: Changing the ones digit: 22 + 10 = 23. Counting by ones on fingers instead of changing the tens. Going the wrong way on the chart: down for 10 less.
At home: Use dimes and pennies: show 4 dimes and 3 pennies, then add a dime. Ask what the new amount is and which coins changed.
