Lesson 1-1.01.3 — Count & Match | ZNChloe MATH Academy

Learning Goal

I can count objects and match the total to the correct number.

By the end of today's lesson, you should be able to count a set of objects one time each and choose the numeral that tells exactly how many objects are in the set.

What you will learnCount objects accurately and connect each quantity to its written number.

What success looks likeYou count every object once, say the total, and select the matching numeral.

Explain the Concept

A number tells how many objects are in a set.

To count a set, touch or point to each object once while saying the counting numbers in order. The last number you say tells the total. Then look for the numeral that matches that total.

Count the stars, then match the number.

★

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. There are 7 stars, so we match the set to the numeral 7.

Counting tip: Point to each object once. The last counting number you say is the total.

Worked Examples

Watch how we count and match.

Example 1 — Count 8 objects

Point to each object and count: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

The last number said is 8, so there are 8 objects.

Choose the numeral 8 because it matches the quantity.

Example 2 — Match a set of 12

Count each object once until you reach the end of the set.

The count ends at 12.

Match the set to the numeral 12.
