1st grade math · Unit 3: Tally marks and pictographs

Count every row

What this lesson shows

Fixes a mistake

“How many in all” adds every row, not only the longest one.

The worked example

The lesson works this one step by step: apples 4, bananas 3, grapes 5. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.

The steps

  1. In all means every row
  2. Write each row’s number
  3. Add them all

Helping at home

In all means every kid. Write the number for each row, then add all of them, not only the longest.

If your kid gets stuck

Add every row.
