The lesson is for comparing number values 1 through 10. It gives students practice with concrete objects and placing them in order from least to greatest and greatest to least. 

This resource is a remix from Illustrative Mathematics https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1081. Suggested Modifications: It is imperative that students in their early ages of mathematics education be introduced to the idea of the number line that makes sense. In other words, they usually count the tick marks on the number line which leads to an inaccuracy in the algorithm. To help them better understand number lines, the suggestion is to introduce the idea number paths which is another way of looking at a number line. To help better facilitate the lesson, I have added a downloadable document student activity that can be used in cooperative learning groups to facilitate mathematical discourse. This activity also encourages literacy in the curriculum.   

This is a remix of Goody Bags from Illustrative Mathematics, https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1113.  This lesson is about about counting a set of objects and writing the number.  The purpose of this task is to give students practice counting 20 or fewer objects orally and writing the number that matches how many they count from each bag or bucket to support sol K.1a and K.1b.  Students will play Count the Room game with a partner.  I often have my students work with a partner because it encourages more engagement and increases individual achievement compared to students working alone.

There are three developmental levels of counting.  The first level and most basic is repeating the rote sequence of numbers.  The second or middle level is developing one-to-one correspondence.  The third or highest level is knowing the cardinality of numbers.  This game will help students to develop these 3 levels in a fun and engaging environment. 

Lesson plan to use with students in Kindergarten to help them count to 20 and also read and write the numbers.

DIce Action is a dice action game used to teach counting with an active approach. Students roll the dice, count the dots, match the number, and complete action on a poster. It is a good beginning of the year lesson for preschoolers.
