Counting with 1-1 Correspondence Strategies
Click on picture to see video.
Standards covered:
-PK4.V.A.2 Child counts up to 10 objects with one-to-one correspondence.
-PK4.V.A.3 Child counts up to 10 items and demonstrates cardinality by communicating that the last number indicates how many items are in the set.
Use snacks, blocks, or other small objects to practice counting together. Encourage your child to touch or move each object as they count, so each one gets counted only once. When they’re finished, ask, “How many are there?” Help them understand that the last number they say tells how many objects are in the group.
You can also place several objects in front of your child and ask, “Can you give me 5?” Try different numbers and let them count out that many.
