Counting Overview
Kindergarten Math
Overview
This is a lesson/activity that contains several counting activities to help students learn their numbers.
Counting Up
To start off the lesson, students will get into a circle and number themselves starting from one all the way to the last person of the group. This will give the students practice with counting. Next, the students will sit in the front of the classroom. They will start off by sitting on the floor. Next, I will start counting to ten by starting with one. When students hear the word "one", they will begin to slowly rise up. The students will rise higher and higher until they are fully standing by the time I reach ten. After doing this a few more times, students will get with a partner. They will each have a white board. One student will write a random number on their board and show their partner. Then, their partner will have to write the number that is one more than the number they were shown. The students will take turns being the one to come up with the number.
