Numbers around Town
Ages 3–5 · 11 minutes · Math
Prepare for a birthday party while counting and learning number sense
Students count along with Marcus as he plans a friend's birthday party with errands around town. The numbers they encounter focus mainly on 5 to 8. Students see math at the bakery, the park, the store, and in final preparations for the big event. This lesson includes basic addition and recognizing missing numbers in a sequence.
