Touch each thing once and say a number. The last number is how many.
Counting tells us how many. Say one number for each thing. Do not skip any. Do not count any twice.
Think of it like thisCount your fingers. Touch each one and say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. You stop at 5, so one hand has 5 fingers.
- How many
- The last number you say when you count.
- Count in fives
- 5, 10, 15, 20… like counting hands.
