Session 2 - Relationship between Numbers and Quantities

Warm-Up Activity & Directions:

1. Begin with a brief review of counting numbers 0 to 10.
2. Write the numbers and have students say them aloud while you point to each corresponding number.
3. Listen for numbers that students might be struggling to identify. After writing a few more numbers, go back to the ones students struggle with and allow them to try again.
4. Place 5 counters in a line on the table and ask students to count with you as you tap or slightly move each counter.
5. Repeat this process with a few different numbers.

• 1. Display the Number Cards (0-10) in order on the table/desk in front of students.
• 2. Go through each number, counting aloud together.
• 3. Choose a ten-frame card and ask the student to count.
• 4. Ask students to place Counting Ten-Frame Cards under the corresponding number card. 

• 5. Throughout this activity, ask the students to explain why they chose the number they did.  Listen for explanations that might include: “I count each circle in the ten frame card and match that to the number card.” or “I know that a full ten frame is the same as 10.”
• 6. If you are doing this with a whole class: count as a class and ask for student volunteers to match the corresponding number card. 
• 7. If you are doing this with an individual or a small group count as a small group or let individual students count. You may need to model your own thinking around this activity. If so, pick a ten frame and think out loud about how you determine what number matches. For example 6 – “I know       that the top of the ten-frame is 5 and then I add on 1 more to make 6.”
• 8.If students get stuck understanding, students can repeat after listening and watching you.

Collaborative Activity #1: (10 - 15 minutes)

Activity: Counting Ten-Frame Cards  and Number Cards (0-10)

Focus: MP2: Reason abstractly and quantitatively, MP3: Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others, MP7: look for and make use of the structure

Directions:

1. Students will now do the Counting Ten-Frame Cards and Number Cards (0-10) model activity from above, but independently or with a partner.
2. Give student/pairs their own set of number cards (0-10).
3. Give student/pairs their own set of ten-frame cards.
4. Ask them to match the numbers with the ten-frame cards. 
5. The students should discuss with each other why they matched the numbers and ten-frames they did. 
6. Students need to leave their cards out for the facilitator to check before moving on to activity #2.
7. Extension: students can put them in order from zero to ten.

Progress Monitoring

Directions:

1. Use Progress Monitoring: Collaborative Activity #1
2. Take note of correct matches using Counting Ten-Frame Cards and Number Cards activity.
3. Take note of incorrect matches using Counting Ten-Frame Cards and Number Cards activity.
4. To move forward, you will want students to be able to match dots on the Ten-Frame Cards with the correct number Cards at least 50% of the time.
