Counting Collections Recording Sheets for Building Number Sense & Base 10 in K-2

Description

Do you have kids that need extra practice counting, skip-counting, writing numbers correctly or need a better understanding of base 10? This counting collections set includes counting collections recording sheets and resources to help kids build number sense.

 

What is Counting Collections?

Counting Collections is a K-2 counting routine that gives kids authentic opportunities to count objects. Because it’s a routine, students only have to learn what to do once. And then we can repeat the routine monthly, weekly, or even daily, depending on the kids’ needs, with a new tub of objects!

 

Why should I do Counting Collections?

Counting Collections helps kids build number sense and base 10 understanding. The more kids count objects, the more they begin to realize that counting objects in groups of 5s or 10s or even 100s is more efficient. This leads to a powerful visual of place value and base 10 understanding and gives K-2 kids a strong math foundation.
