About this resource
Description
This K.CC.1 Common Core Activity helps children count to 100 by ones and by tens, the first counting standard in kindergarten math. Counting to 100 is more than saying a list of words. Children need to see that the numbers follow a pattern, that each row of ten starts a new decade, and that counting by tens is a faster way to reach the same place.
How to Use This Activity
Print the pages one-sided and cut the ten color-coded number strips apart with just 13 straight cuts. Children mix up the strips, find the strip that starts with 1 and build a hundred chart on the printed mat, one strip at a time, counting on to check each new row. Then they put the ten tens cards in order. Every tens card shows the number and a matching set of base-ten rods, so children can see that 40 is four tens. A How to Use page gives simple steps and ideas to extend the game, and a kindergarten practice page asks children to count on and fill in missing numbers.
What’s Included
- Colorful cover page
- How to Use page with simple steps and extension ideas
- 10 color-coded number strips from 1 to 100
- Hundred chart mat
- 10 tens cards from 10 to 100 with base-ten rods
- Count-on practice worksheet
- Answer key: the finished hundred chart, the tens cards in order and the practice key
Why This Kindergarten Counting Activity Helps Kids
First, building the chart row by row shows the pattern in our numbers, so children notice that 31, 41 and 51 all start a new row the same way. Second, putting the tens cards in order and counting by tens builds early place value and skip counting. Third, the hands-on strips let children check their own work by counting on, which builds confidence. This kindergarten counting activity also works well for first graders who are counting to 120.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use the K.CC.1 Common Core Activity in a math center, as a partner game, or as a quick warm-up before calendar time. Take one strip away and ask a friend to say the missing numbers, time how fast a group can build the whole chart, or count back from 100 by tens. Send a set home in a zip-top bag for extra practice.
