Counting to ten feels so basic, doesn’t it?
It’s actually more complicated than you might think!
Just think about everything preschoolers are learning as they count …
- the stable order principle
- one-to-one-correspondence
- cardinality
- subitizing
That’s why young learners need many concrete counting experiences as they master counting to ten. This is a six-part series that will give you ideas and resource for teaching this important skill.

You’ve asked for low-prep activities that use very little computer ink. I’ve heard you!
Each post in this series includes teaching tips and a simple black and white printable.
I recommend preparing each printable as it’s shared. Then store it in a bin with simple manipulatives. This way you can pull it out for fun counting practice at any time.
