2nd grade math · Unit 10: Data

Name each count

What this lesson shows

Fixes a mistake

8, 5, 7 alone says nothing. 8 red, 5 blue, 7 green does.

The worked example

The lesson works this one step by step: red 8, blue 5, green 7. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.

The steps

  1. Numbers alone say nothing
  2. Name each count
  3. Then anyone can read it

Helping at home

A count alone says nothing. Write each answer in a table with its count beside it, so anyone can read who picked what.

If your kid gets stuck

Name each count.
