Hi and welcome to basic counting in this video, you'll learn how to count to 10 in
Counting we use numbers to help us tell how many of something we have
We can count out loud or in writing
each individual number has its own meaning so let's get started and
We start with 1 which is equal to one item. So it's 1
Next we go to 2 1 2
Then we have 3 1 2 3
Then we go to four one, two, three and four and
after four comes five
One two three four five
On two six one two
Three four five six
After that we have seven
One two three four five six and seven
Next comes eight
one two
Three four five six seven eight
After eight we get nine
one
two
three four five
six
seven eight
nine
And our last and largest number is 10
We start from 1 and go 1 2 3
4
5 6 7 8
9 10
Now let's do some examples to help you understand counting better
Here we have a group of apples. So let's count them
one two
Three now we're already done counting them and we know that we have three apples
Next let's count the books on this shelf. You start from one and count 1 2 3
4 5
6
7 8
We have 8 books on this bookshelf
For a last example, let's count this group of candies here and start from 1 1
2
3
4 5
6 7 8
9 10 now that we've counted that we know that we have 10 pieces of candy
Another cool way that you can count is by using your fingers
each different finger represents a different number
So we'll start with 1 again 1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9
10
There are lots of ways to practice counting you can count around your household
You can count things like how many chairs are around your dinner table or how many windows are in your house
The possibilities are endless
You can practice your new counting skills on our games and until next time always be clever
