Slide 1: Introduction to Counting to 100

• Counting is an important skill in mathematics!
• Today, we will learn how to count to 100 using three ways:
  • Concretely with real objects.
  • Pictorially with drawings.
  • Symbolically with numbers.
• Let's get started!

Slide 2: Counting Concretely

• Concretely means using real objects to count.
• We can use counters, which can be anything like:
  • Colorful blocks
  • Counters in different colors (red, blue, green)
• Example: How many apple and star counters can we find?

Slide 3: Counting Pictorially

• Pictorial counting is when we draw pictures to show numbers.
• Let's draw:
  • 10 apples: 🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏🍏
  • 10 stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
• When we draw, we can see how many we have in total!
• How many do we have if we combine 10 apples and 10 stars?

Slide 4: Symbolic Counting

• Symbolic counting uses numbers to represent amounts.
• Let's write the numbers from 1 to 100!
• Example:
  • 1, 2, 3,... all the way to 100.
• We can learn patterns in numbers, like:
  • Every 10 numbers have 0, 1, 2, etc., in the ones place.
• Let's practice counting together!
