How Can You Help? • Provide plenty of opportunities for your child to count various objects. Your child may enjoy counting with coins, marbles, beans, etc. • While reading stories with pictures, if the pictures allow, have your child look for certain objects in the pictures and count how many there are of that particular object. • Once your child can count beyond 10, have him or her continue to use real objects to count. See if your child can group by tens. Then have your child count by tens and add the remaining number to see how many are in all. 25
