• counting, comparing, and writing numbers to 100

Your student will develop both strong number sense and a positive attitude towards math with fun activities like Addition Bingo, Pretend Store, and Measurement Scavenger Hunt. All you’ll need are this Instructor Guide, the Student Workbook, and simple household or classroom items (like play money, pattern blocks, objects to count, and a ruler) to make math come alive for your student.

All student practice pages (and answers) are found in the colorful, easy-to-use Student Workbook.
