Counting

Math

• The child learned to count from 1 to 20 by counting objects in the activity.
• They practiced one-to-one correspondence by touching and counting each object individually.
• The child learned basic addition by combining groups of objects and counting the total number.
• They also practiced skip counting by counting by 2s, 5s, or 10s during the activity.

For continued development, encourage the child to practice counting in real-life situations, such as counting the number of fruits in a bowl or the steps they take while walking. Use visual aids like number charts or number lines to help them visualize counting sequences. Incorporate counting into games or everyday activities to make learning more fun and engaging.
