Teaching guide
Instantly recognise and name how many objects are in a small collection of up to five, without counting one by one.
Count real objects out loud, touching each one once, then match the count to the written numeral. Practise counting on from a number, not always from one.
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Skipping or double-counting objects (weak one-to-one correspondence), and thinking the last number said is just a label rather than the total.
