First, next, last: what comes now?
In kindergarten math, sequencing means putting things in order: numbers, sizes and events. Kids count forward and learn what comes right before and right after a number, like 6, 7, 8. They line up objects from smallest to biggest and start using ordinal words such as first, second and third. The click moment comes when a child spots a missing number in a row and shouts, "Hey, 5 is gone!"
Little hands and lots of movement make number order click. Here's what works in our kindergarten rooms.
Hand each child a few leaf cards and have the group lay them down in a row from 1 to 10. Then flip one over and ask, "Which number is hiding?" Touching and moving the numbers makes the order real before kids ever write it.
Why it works: going from real objects to pictures to symbols is a core recommendation of the U.S. Department of Education's elementary math guide.

Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).
Try it withI Love to Count from 1 to 10 SongSongsOpen it →Call out a number and kids find the cards for the number before and after it. Start with 1 to 10 and stretch to 20 when they're ready. Quick rounds of three minutes keep it fun.
Why it works: playful practice with a clear goal keeps kids practicing longer, and simple learning games have been shown to build real skills (Ramani and Siegler, 2008).

It's putting numbers, objects or events in the right order. Kindergartners count in order, name the number before or after another, order objects by size, and use words like first, next and last.
Most kindergartners work toward counting to 100 by ones and tens by the end of the year, and reading and writing numbers to 20. Early in the year, start with 1 to 10.
Use a number line or a row of number cards. Point to a number and ask which one lives on its left and which on its right. Lots of short, playful rounds work better than one long lesson.
Write numbers on sticky notes and have your child line them up on the floor, then hide one for them to find. Counting stairs, laundry or snacks out loud works too.
Ordinal numbers tell position: first, second, third and so on. Lining up toys or family members and naming who's first, second and third is an easy way to practice.
