Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Make a set with objects from a given context within 20.
  • Join or separate objects and count to determine how many were ‘added to’ the set (Ex: Rich had 11 crayons. Rich found more crayons. He has 14 crayons. How many did he find?) ‘take from’ the set (Ex: There were 14 apples. Jane ate some of the apples. There are 3 apples left. How many apples were eaten?), or the sum or difference./li>
Representation:
  • Make a drawing or picture of a set from a given context within 20.
