Counting

Math

• The child has learned to count from 1 to 10.
• They can recognize and name numbers from 1 to 10.
• They understand the concept of one-to-one correspondence, associating each object with a number.
• The child can order numbers from 1 to 10 in ascending and descending order.

For continued development, encourage the child to practice counting in different contexts, such as counting objects in nature or while playing games. They can also explore counting by twos or fives to reinforce skip counting.
