Numbers in the City
Ages 3–5 · 10 minutes · Math
Journey to the big city and a museum with more counting fun
Marcus guides students on another trip as he visits a friend in the big city. The numbers he encounters focus mainly on 9 to 12. Students see math traveling around the city, at the park, and inside the natural history museum. With bigger numbers to consider, this lesson includes comparing numbers and recognizing missing numbers.
