How many at a glance

Seeing how many are in a small group at a glance, without counting one by one, on dot cards, ten frames and dominoes.

Make a sheetDownload PDFThe PDF has this sheet, its answer key and a guide for grown-ups.

How to help

Take a quick look and say the number you see. Patterns help: dice dots, or a full row of 5 in a ten frame. Count to check if unsure.

Watch for: Counting every dot slowly instead of seeing the pattern. Mixing up 4 and 5 when the dots are scattered. On dominoes, writing one side's dots instead of both sides together.

At home: Flash a few fingers or a die for a second and ask how many. Start with up to 5, then try two dice together.
