The Math Monster

We have been having lots of fun taking our new class member "The Math Monster" home each night to do a maths task with him and our family. Each day we will add a voicethread for each person who takes home the Math Monster. Last night James S took home the Math Monster and he taught the math monster how to count to 10 in Dutch. We recorded James on a voicethread counting to 10 in Dutch. We noticed that some of the numbers in Dutch sound the same as when we same them in English. Can you count to 10 in another language?
