Common misconception
Pupils should not be encouraged to think about 'adding a zero' to the 2-digit numbers.
Make careful use of the stem sentences and representations to make sure that pupils are clear that e.g. 12 tens is equal to 120.
This lesson provides the opportunity to link a number of tens with a 3-digit multiple of ten by saying that, for example, 14 tens is equal to 140. This then helps pupils to apply known facts to 20 to 3-digit multiples of ten.
