Counting Kingdom

A 12-lesson Tier 2 intervention sequence for Kindergarten focusing on counting, cardinality, and comparison. Based on ALN High Leverage Concepts and IM methods, it uses the 'Counting Kingdom' theme to engage young learners with manipulatives and visual models.

First Steps

Explicit instruction on rote counting to 10 with choral counting and stop-start games. Focuses on the stable order principle (K.CC.A.1).

Five Friends

Developing one-to-one correspondence for objects up to 5 using physical manipulatives and touch-counting. (K.CC.B.4a).

Kings Treasure

Focus on cardinality: understanding that the last number named tells the number of objects counted (K.CC.B.4b).

Hidden Gems

Counting objects in different arrangements (lines, arrays, scattered) and introducing the conservation of number (K.CC.B.5).

More Less Match

Identifying whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to another using matching strategies (K.CC.C.6).

Great Ten

Extending counting and cardinality concepts to the range of 6-10 using 10-frames and fingers (K.CC.A.1, K.CC.B.4).

Jump Ahead

Practice counting forward beginning from a given number within the known sequence (K.CC.A.2).

Ten Frame Fortress

Using 10-frames to organize and count objects, fostering subitizing skills for small groups (K.CC.B.5).

Block Battle

Comparing two numbers between 1 and 10 presented as written numerals using visual models for support (K.CC.C.7).

Scribe School

Introduction to writing numerals 0-10 and representing a number of objects with a written numeral (K.CC.A.3).

Hundred Hike

Learning the count sequence to 100 by tens, using visual patterns on a 100-chart (K.CC.A.1).

Crown Celebration

A comprehensive review and formative assessment session to celebrate progress and identify remaining gaps in counting and cardinality.
