Learning goals
Counting objects helps early learners connect a group of items with its number. For a first session, choose 1–5 and ask the child to point to each object once. Increase the range only when one-to-one counting is comfortable.
How to use this worksheet
- Ask the learner to point to each object while saying the number.
- Cover the answer area until all objects have been counted.
- For 1–20, encourage groups of five or ten rather than repeated guessing.
