Do you remember what numerals are? They are numbers!

Numerals (Numbers) Are Symbols That Show How Many Let’s see how this works… There are 4 Bunnies! There are 7 bunnies!

So, Each Numeral (Number) Stands for a Different Amount! 3 Cats 6 Cats 1 Cat Do you see how the numeral matches how many cats you counted?

Try some counting with your fingers! How many fingers do you have all together? Stick out only some of your fingers and count them. Try different amounts. Can you match each amount to the right numeral?

Game Time! How many horses do you see?
