Submission Required
Using picture cards from the observation stations, pairs sort examples into plant, animal, and not sure categories, then count and compare each group. Students build a floor graph with cards, compare written numerals, and solve short teacher-read story problems about how many more, how many fewer, and how many altogether. The class discusses which categories were easy or hard to place and why.
