Counting
Explain clearly the meaning of each of the following pre-number
concepts. Outline briefly how you would use concrete material to
assess the understanding of the following concepts with a young
child:
Patterning
One-to-one correspondence
Sorting and classifying
There are four (4) main counting principles. Clearly explain each
of the four (4). You may use examples and/or diagrams to clarify
your explanation.
What kind of knowledge is required to be able to count with
understanding?
Explain the difference between rhythmic and skip counting. How
do these methods of counting help a child learn the
multiplication facts?
Define the following number terms:
Cardinal
Ordinal
Nominal
When teaching the following pre-number concepts to young
children it is important to use concrete materials and
representations to assess students knowledge and skills as they
allow students to effectively communicate a range of
mathematical ideas and their understanding about concepts to
both themselves and others (Siemon et al., 2011). Furthermore,
using materials increases students engagement, development,
of internal representations, and ability to apply their

Terms and their definitions Cardinal: the value given to the total amount of items in a
collection (Siemon et al., 2011).
Ordinal: is the number used to classify order of position,
e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd Cardinal: the value given to the total
amount of items in a collection (Siemon et al., 2011).
Nominal: are categorical numbers that are used for
identification only. For instance a used only to identify
something not as a value or position.
