Mathematics - Term 1 - Week 3

Today, we will learn about numbers from 1 to 10. Numbers are important because they help us count and understand how many things we have. We will look at each number, learn how to say it, and see what it looks like when we write it. Let's start with the number 1. Can anyone tell me what comes after 1? That's right, it's 2! We will go all the way to 10 today.

Let's count some objects together! I have 5 apples here. Let's count them one by one: 1 apple, 2 apples, 3 apples, 4 apples, and 5 apples. Now, let’s write the number 5 on the board. Who can tell me how many apples we have? Yes, we have 5 apples! This is how we can use numbers to count things around us.

Now, let's work together! I will place different objects on the table, and we will count them as a class. I have 3 blocks, 4 crayons, and 2 balls. Let's count the blocks first: 1, 2, 3. Great! Now, how many crayons do we have? Let's count together: 1, 2, 3, 4. Excellent! Finally, let’s count the balls: 1, 2. Fantastic job! After this, we will write the numbers we counted on the board.

For your independent practice, I have a worksheet for you. It has pictures of different objects, and your task is to count how many there are and write the correct number next to each picture. Remember to look carefully and count slowly. Once you finish, we will share our answers with the class!
