Math Counting Practice
Counting Warm-ups from Past Weeks:
You can re-watch and re-practice these at any time :)
Let's look at these visual models to tell how many, and what goes with that number to make 100.
More work with telling time! This week we will tell time to the quarter, half, and three quarter hour. Or....11:15, 11:30 and 11:45, for example. Here is a link to a clock you can practice with!
Balance the scale. Can you make both sides match? Challenge: Send Brin your own "balance the scale" problem for next week!
Practice skip counting by 3's as we count the leaves on 3-leaf shamrocks.
Noah helps us review counting by 10's, using base 10 pieces.
What's the DIFFERENCE? Play along with Brin as we explore some real world math scenarios.
Doubles facts review -- knowing doubles facts automatically within 20 helps us add, subract, and solve doubles plus or minus one!
"Pan Balance" - can you find the value of each shape? You can play here!
Practice addition and subtraction facts with Brin. Who will answer first? More practice here.
Let's review analog clocks (hour and minute hands) and tell time by the hour.
Use number pieces to add and subtract 10's with me.
Subitizing (just knowing) numbers of dots.
Practice counting backward with me! You can even say "BLAST OFF" at home :)
How many dots? What's 10 more? What's 10 less? We'll practice with the place value chart, too!
Play "Guess my Rule" and "True or False" with me at home as we practice patterns with +1, -1, +10 and -10.
Let's play with balanced equations. Both sides of the scale need to be equal! You can play Balanced Equations HERE.
Review math vocabulary terms with Brin. Can you guess the word? Visual models and definitions help us figure out which word it is.
How many dots are there? Play along to "see" how many dots between 10-20, then add up by 10's and 1's to see how many in all!
Let's review some math symbols and look at expressions to see if they are true or false.
We dive into subtraction strategies this week. Please practice counting backward by 1's and 10's with me!
Let's solve some basic subtraction facts together. You can play this game at:
How many dots - estimation and number sense. We'll look at "quick images" to see how many dots in all. I wonder if your strategy will be different from mine!
Count with Brin as we count backward by 1's with BIG NUMBERS! (It's not as painful as my face looks in this video, promise!) You can use THIS TOOL to practice at home, too!
Check out these three ESTIMATION tasks. Please work along with me on your white board to use clues to come up with good ESTIMATES with our math friend, Mr. Stadel. (you can check out more tasks like this HERE).
Izzy is the star of this counting warm-up! Make sure you count along at home with her as you practice your counting skills :)
Let's practice adding 2-digit and 3-digit numbers by writing them in EXPANDED FORM and using place value strategies!
What's 10 more? 10 less? 100 more? 100 less? End the warm up wit a BIG CHALLENGE!!! Let me know if you got it :)
Let's review the values of pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters, and count up values of coins shown. I challenge you to count some change in your house after watching this warm-up video.
In this video, we practice adding and subtracting 10 and 100, using place value strategies.
Let's practice our doubles + and - 1 strategy for automaticity with addition facts.
Practice counting up and down by 10 and 100 both on and off the decade/century.
Reivewing > < = symbols and deciding if the expressions comparing two 3-digit numbers are true or false.
What number? What's the next friendly 10? How many jumps to get there? Follow along and answer with me at home!
Let's practice our addition doubles facts using a rekenrek. If you don't have a rekenrek at home, you can access an online rekenrek tool here. Try to get ALL of your doubles facts solid this week!
Let's count by 10's and also see HOW MANY TENS make up big numbers.
Roll dice to make numbers in UNIT FORM, MODEL/REPRESENTATION, EXPANDED FORM, and STANDARD FORM. Then, compare if you or Brin got larger numbers, and write the numbers in order from LEAST to GREATEST.
Learn how to make "drop it sticks" and use them to count by 10's and 1's. There are many variations of this game: Play with a friend and tally who has a greater number each drop, make a line plot for numbers you drop, and practice counting on (not just by 10's an 1's). Keep your drop it sicks...we'll use them all year long!
We've been working on writing and representing numbers in many forms over the past several weeks as we're building our knowledge of the base 10 system. Follow along with this video to practice reading and writing numbers in Standard Form, Expanded Form, and Unit Form!
Let's count by 10's to 100, by 100's to 1,000, and then build representations of different numbers using hundreds, tens and ones manipulatives.
Roll your SPECIAL hundreds, tens, and ones dice. Write your roll in expanded and standard form. Then, order your numbers from least to greatest.
Try out some number puzzles! Brin gives you clues with hundreds, tens and ones...you try to write the number in standard form! At the end, I will mix it up to give you some challenges, if you choose to accept them :)
Look at patterns on a 120 chart as we practice counting by 10's, 5's and 2's.
You can try on your own HERE.
I have so many number pieces in ones, tens and hundreds. Help me organzie and count them to see how many in all.
You can try this online tool HERE.
Write that number! Brin gives clues for ones, tens and hundreds, and you write the number in STANDARD FORM.
Here, Brin uses a tool called "Number Pieces" to represent two and three digit numbers in standard and expanded form. Follow along with my video and feel free to explore this great online tool!
Backward counting is tricky! Here, we count back by 1's using a "flip counter online tool" which is a great tool. It allows students to see the numeric form of numbers they are counting, and to watch patterns with hundreds, tens and ones change as they cross centuries and decades.
Finger Flash! Watch as Brin "flashes" numbers as tens and ones. Then, see if you can tell what is 10 more and 10 less than my number.
Count by 10's and 1's using the flip counter. You can try this at home, too. Here's the link to the flip counter.
I will flash ten frames, number stacks of 10's and 1's, and even challenges into the 100's. Can you tell how many? Can you tell me how many to the next friendly 10?
Let's use images of quarters to help us learn to count forward (and even backward!) by 25.
Count by 5's from any multiple of 5 within 100, using a rekenrek (also called number rack)
Practice making and reading numbers with "finger flashes".
"Guess My Number!" Brin gives 3 clues for 3 numbers. Can you guess what it is before she tells you?
Read and write numbers
Count by 5's and 2's
Count up and down by 10's with models
Count forward and backward by 1's
Count by 10's within 200
How many? What goes with ____ to make 10? (or 20)?
