In addition to learning rote counting sequences, kindergarten students also learn to count sets of objects up to 20 and count out a given number of objects up to 20. When working on this skill at home, first make sure your child can count sets within 10 before moving onto sets within 10. You can easily incorporate counting practice at home by having your child count items in your house such as books, toys and cookies. Below is a video that explains how to teach your child to accurately count with one-to-one correspondence. Also shown below is a chart of the counting strategies students are taught in kindergarten. Once your child is able to accurately count sets, have him count out a number of objects to give to you. This is a harder task, because the child must remember to stop when he gets to the designated number. When setting the dinner table ask your child to count and get 6 forks or when playing with Legos ask him to count and give you 17 that you can use to build.
