Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Revisit number names to 10, and know the order of them will not change (stable-order principle).
- Know that we can start our verbal count from any given number within 10.
Common misconception
Saying number names out of order or missing a number name in the sequence.
Repeat the number names in the correct order, emphasising the correction made.
