Count the pencils. Color the five frame to show how
many there are.
In the picture, we can see a group
of pencils. And the first thing we’re told to
do in this problem is to count them. We’re then told to color the five
frame to show how many pencils there are. And we can see three possible
answers. There’re five frames that have been
colored in. But which one is correct? You know, five frames like this are
a good way to count numbers up to five. Let’s color our own five frame
in. Then, we know what to look for in
the answer.
To make sure we remember which
pencils we’ve counted, let’s move them every time we say a new number. One — we’ve colored one of the
squares in our five frame — two, three, four. We’ve counted four pencils. And we’ve colored the five frame to
show the number four. Now, which of our three possible
answers shows the number four too, just like the one we’ve colored in? Well, one of the five frames we
don’t even need to count. We can see that it’s completely
colored in. And because it’s a five frame, it
shows the number five. We want to show the number
four. So this answer is not correct.
What about this five frame? Does this look the same as the one
we colored in? One, two, three. This five frame represents the
number three, not four. The correct answer must be this
one. But let’s just count the squares
just to check, one, two, three, four. We colored a five frame to show how
many pencils there were. We counted four pencils. And so the correct answer is the
one that shows four squares shaded.
