Learning to Count Up to 7 – What is counting? – Counting tells us how many items are present. – Counting in everyday life – We count things like toys, candies, and stickers. – Counting practice: 1 to 7 – Let’s count aloud from 1 to 7 together. – Understanding the number 7 – The number after 6 is 7, which is our focus. | This slide introduces the concept of counting to Kindergarten students, emphasizing its importance in everyday life. Start by explaining that counting helps us determine the quantity of objects. Use relatable examples such as toys, candies, or stickers to illustrate the point. Engage the students by counting together from 1 to 7, ensuring they understand each number’s sequence. Highlight the number 7 as the target for this lesson. Encourage the children to practice counting various items up to 7 to reinforce their understanding. The goal is to make them comfortable with numbers and the concept of counting.

Learning the Number 1 – This is the number 1 – The very first number in counting – Saying ‘one’ for one sticker – Practice by holding up a single sticker – Show me one finger, please – It’s like waving hello with just one finger! | This slide introduces the concept of the number 1 to Kindergarten students. Start by showing them the numeral and saying the number out loud. Hold up a sticker and emphasize that when we have only one, we say ‘one’. Encourage the children to hold up one finger, which can help them physically connect with the number. It’s a simple yet effective way to begin understanding quantity and the basics of counting. For the activity, you can distribute one sticker to each child and ask them to hold it up while saying ‘one’. This tactile experience reinforces the concept. Additionally, you can incorporate a song or a rhyme that includes counting to one to make the learning process enjoyable.

Counting Stickers: Numbers 2 to 7 – Let’s count stickers, starting at 2 – Count up to 7 stickers together – Practice counting: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 – Each number adds one more sticker – Show that 3 is 2 plus 1 more sticker – Understand numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 – Recognize and say numbers 2 to 7 | This slide is aimed at helping Kindergarten students understand the concept of counting sequentially from 2 to 7. Start by showing them two stickers and then add one sticker at a time as you count together up to seven.

Encourage the students to count aloud with you, reinforcing their understanding of the sequence of numbers. This activity will help them grasp the idea of incrementing numbers and the basic concept of addition.
