Counting

Overall Learning

Objectives:

Accurately count a set of 1 – 10 objects.

Recognise numerals 1 – 10 and know what they represent.

Match a numeral to the correct set of items.

Level 1

Learning Objectives:

Understand that, in counting, we give one number name only in one-to-one correspondence with each object.

Move towards understanding that the last number counted in a set gives the total for that set.

What happens?

A water tray appears on the screen and a number of boats appear below it.

Children are asked to put a given number of boats into the water tray.

As each of the boats is placed in the water tray, Tizzy counts them, stopping automatically when the required total is reached.

Children must place boats into two water trays to complete one turn.
