Counting

Counting

Counting is an essential skill in Number. At Level 1, students count by ones to and from 100 from any starting point. Level 1 students skip count by twos, tens and threes to at least 110. At Level 2, students experiment with skip counting using other sequences, such as threes and fours.

Practise counting using board games such as Snakes and Ladders. Don't forget to count beyond one hundred!
