Your child learns that zero means none and matches the numeral 0 to an empty group. We suggest reading it together.
What children learn in Level 17
- Zero means none at all. How many cats are in this box? None! Zero cats.
- This is how we write zero. It looks like an empty circle, and it means nothing is there.
- There were 3 birds. All 3 flew away. Now there are zero birds!
- Your turn! Tap the box that has zero dogs.
- Try it with a grown-up! After a snack, look at your plate. How many crackers are left? Zero!
