What this lesson shows
5 dogs and 5 bones. Every dog gets one bone and none are left: 5 is equal to 5.

Helping at home
Read each box aloud. Your kid draws a line from each thing on top to one below. If none are left over, the groups are equal. Say it: "4 is equal to 4."
If your kid gets stuck
Match each one. None left over? Then they are equal.
