Session 3 - Relationship between Numbers and Quantities

Relationships between Numbers and Quantities - Grade: Kindergarten.

Collaborative Activity #2: (10 - 15 minutes)

Activity: Number Cards (0-10) and Dice Flashcards

Directions:

Give student/pairs their own set of Number Cards (0-10).
Give student/pairs their own set of Dice Flashcards with pictures of dice values on them.
Students will count dot dice on the picture cards and match them with the corresponding number card.
1. Please note, that there are more than ten dot dice cards to allow for multiple practices.
The students should discuss with each other why they matched the numbers and ten frames they did. They can also explain to the facilitator.
Extension: students can put them in order from zero to ten.

Decorative question mark:

Why are students doing this/what are they getting out of it?

This activity allows students an opportunity to apply the rote skill of counting to a different manipulative as a mini-application practice.

Please Note
