    Students will orally count to 100 by ones beginning with any given number within a known sequence other than the number 1 without skipping numbers, repeating numbers, or hesitating.

    Activity Details

    1. Teacher will give students a number to start with that is greater than 1 and ask the students to count on to the number 10.
    2. Teacher will use the checklist provided and place a checkmark for mastery in rote counting to 10 beginning with any number other than 1.
    3. If the student has trouble counting to 10, the teacher will write the number that the student stopped counting on in the correct sequence.
    4. When the student has mastered to 10, the teacher will give the student a number to start with that is greater than 1 and ask the student to count on to the number 20.
    5. Teacher will use the checklist provided and place a checkmark for mastery in rote counting to 20 beginning with any number other than 1.
    6. If the student has trouble counting to 20, the teacher will write the number that the student stopped counting on in the correct sequence.

    Assessment Strategies

    Assessment Strategies

    Students should master rote counting to 10 before counting forward from a number other than 1.

    Students may have to begin with smaller numbers and progress to greater numbers.

    Teacher may limit how far the students count then increase the range to 100 when students are ready.

    Variation Tips

    Once your students have mastered orally counting to 100 by ones beginning with any given number other than 1, you can increase the rigor by requiring them to orally count by 10's to 100 beginning at any given number other than 10.
