Mathematics - Term 2 - Week 10

Today, we will learn about numbers and how to count them. Numbers are symbols that represent quantities. For example, the number '1' represents one item, while '2' represents two items. We will focus on numbers from 1 to 10. Let's look at some objects around us and see how many we can count together!

Let's count the apples in our basket. I have 3 apples. I will place them on the table and count them out loud: 1, 2, 3. Now, I will write the number '3' on the board. This shows that there are three apples. Can anyone tell me how many apples we have if I add one more? That's right, we will have 4 apples!

Now, let's work together! I will give each group a set of blocks. Your task is to count how many blocks you have and then write the correct number on your paper. Remember to count out loud as you go. After you finish, we will share our counts with the class. This will help us practice our counting skills together!

For your independent practice, you will receive a worksheet with pictures of different objects. Your job is to count how many objects are in each picture and write the matching number next to it. Make sure to check your work and see if your numbers match the quantities. This will help you become more confident in recognizing numbers and counting!
