1st grade involves counting objects. 1st grade covers counting by twos, fives, and tens. 3rd grade introduces larger collections and combinatorial tasks, expanding in middle school.
Tutero’s counting lessons introduce younger students to number theory through fun activities, strengthening arithmetic skills and fostering a love for math.
Students delve into the fundamentals of counting and organising data. They conduct surveys, gather information, and analyze results, fostering an appreciation for data collection and analysis. This hands-on approach builds foundational skills in data literacy and understanding quantitative information.
The counting lesson plan incorporates enabling prompts for students who require assistance with basic counting skills and extending prompts for those prepared to engage in more advanced counting techniques and strategies. This approach promotes an understanding of numbers and sequences, tailored to accommodate varied learning abilities.

Counting by Numbers
Students start by learning to count by ones and gradually progress to higher numbers. They learn to count in contexts such as number lines, objects, and everyday scenarios. By 5th grade, students confidently count to and beyond 1000, understanding number sequences and their applications in practical situations.
Skip Counting
Beginning with skip counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s, students use this technique to understand patterns in number sequences and to assist with efficient calculation methods. By 3rd grade, they are introduced to skip counting by larger multiples and primes. By 5th grade, they skip count by complex numbers, aiding their understanding of multiplication, division, and factors.
Counting Backwards
Students initially learn to count backwards from 10 or 20, enhancing their understanding of subtraction and number order. As they progress, they count backwards from increasingly larger numbers and from any starting point. By 5th grade, counting backwards integrates with more complex mathematical tasks, such as calculating differences and preparing for negative numbers.
