This video addresses two Indiana Academic Standards for Math: Count to at least 100 by ones and tens and count on by one from any number. (K.NS.1) Count to at least 120 by ones, fives, and tens from any given number. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral. (1.NS.1) Math education consultant Courtney Flessner helps educators envision the teaching and assessment of these standards in kindergarten and first grade.

In kindergarten and first grade, students should regularly engage in skip counting. While the standards state that students should count by ones and tens (K) and ones, fives, and tens (1st), the key is to start from any given number to at least 100 or 120. For example, we want them to be able to start at 38 and count: 38, 48, 58, 68, etc. In first grade students should continually practice this skill as they move across 100.

This video shows how students can skip count in a large or small group, by any given number, on a regular basis. Choral counting is presented as a way for students to practice their skip counting. Formative and summative assessments include individual and small group interviews, observations during whole group skip counting, observing number patterns, and filling in hundreds charts.
