Back to School Counting Activities

At the beginning of the school year, I use with my children Back to School counting activities. We use these activities to refresh children’s knowledge and practice math quantities, numbers, counting one by one, and fine motor skills.

The School theme is pretty universal. It creates an opportunity to use these activities all over the year, not only in September.

Math Standards I use in my Games

Math Foundational Skills for Preschool and Kindergarten:

Count to tell the number of objects.

K.CC.4. Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality.

a. When counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object.

b. Understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted.

K.CC.5. Count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 10 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1–20, count out that many objects.
