Enduring Understandings
The quantity of a small collection can often be determined through
instant recognition or by thinking of it in its parts.
Quantities can be represented in a variety of ways with objects,
pictures, and numerals.
Quantities can be counted and compared using numbers, words, and
numerals.

Key Questions
How many dots/objects do you see? how do you see them?
How can quantities be shown? how many different ways can you

Cross-curricular Opportunities
Art create an acrostic using the number word representing student age. Use

F fun
I interesting
V very cool
E - exciting

Safety Concerns
Tripping on desks near whiteboard or falling/tripping over other students
while playing the number word sort game.

Materials and Resources

iPads (6), computers (3), Number word sort game (1-20) two sets, Jump
Math workbooks.

Write the numbers 6 and 16 on board ask students to say them.

How do they sound the same/different? Look same/different?
Repeat for 7 and 17, 9 and 19, 8 and 18, 4 and 14.
Do 3 and 13 have any sounds in common? What about 1 and 11?
Repeat for 2 and 12, 5 and 15.

Now going to learn number words for 11 to 20.

1. Write nineteen on board. Volunteer to guess the number. Can you find
the one-digit number hidden in this word? Have student volunteer come
to whiteboard and underline the one digit number hidden in word.
2. Repeat with fourteen, sixteen, eighteen, seventeen.
3. Write thirteen on board. Point out first two letters. What number word
already know with same two letters? Repeat with twelve and fifteen.
Have students share thoughts with elbow partner. Partners then share
with desk group to check answers.

4. Write twenty and eleven. Compare twenty and twelve. Eleven does not
sound at all like its second digit one.

today with all twenty words? What was the hardest part? What made it
easier?
