Help counting make sense
Young learners do best when they can see, touch, and organize a quantity before being asked to recognize or write its numeral. Start with small groups, move one item for each number word, and then connect the completed group with a number card.
- Move each object after it has been counted.
- Use ten frames to make groups easier to see.
- Compare two groups before introducing symbols.
- Repeat with a fresh arrangement instead of memorizing a picture.
Practice one-to-one correspondence or follow the full teaching sequence.
Know what to practice next
Use the child’s current behavior as the guide. Accurate touching and counting come before speed; recognizing a numeral comes after the quantity has meaning.
