Show Me 3!

Count out a number of things, up to 5.

Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.

For grown-ups

Your child counts out a number of things (up to 5) and starts to recognize the numerals 1 to 5. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 5

Sometimes we need just the right number. To get 3 eggs, count 1, 2, 3, and then stop!
Your turn! Tap the carrots to put 3 in the basket. Count as you go.
This is how we write 3. When you see it, it means 3 things.
Your turn! Put 5 corn cobs in the basket. Stop when you say 5!
Try it with a grown-up! Play shop: ask for 2 grapes, then 4 blocks. Count them out and stop at the number.
