Count the elephants. Show the same number using
balls.
We’re shown a number of
elephants. And the first part of the question
tells us to count them. Let’s use counters to help make
sure we count them all correctly. One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight. There are eight elephants. We have to show the same number
using the balls. Which of our three groups of balls
shows the number eight? Let’s look at the first
picture. Does this show eight balls?
Let’s check using our counters. One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight. This picture shows the correct
number of balls. There are eight elephants and eight
balls. This picture only has six
balls. We would need two more to show
eight. Six is two less than eight. And this picture has nine
balls. It has one more ball than
eight. We would need to take one ball away
to show eight. We counted eight elephants and we
showed the same number using balls.
