Comparing to 10

Compare two groups up to 10 by matching or counting.

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

For grown-ups

Your child compares two groups up to 10 by matching or counting, and tells which number is more or fewer. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 24

With bigger groups, you can count each row. 7 penguins, 9 fish. 9 comes after 7 when we count, so there are more fish!
Or match them up! 2 fish are left over, so there are more fish. Both ways work.
Your turn! Tap the group with more flamingos.
When we count, the number we say first is fewer. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 4 comes before 6, so 4 is fewer.
Try it with a grown-up! Count the cars of two colors on your street. Which color has more?
