Storytelling:
“Before introducing more formal mathematical ideas and inventions that present the short-term learning goals, the teacher might use the tale as a key tool to elicit informal ways of reasoning.

Demonstrate to the class the way you would count and match by matching two different types of objects together, such as dominos and counting chips.
2.
Have a student come up to the board and count out a certain number of objects and then match that to another group of the same quantity. 3.
Lastly, allow students to work in their table groups to continue doing the
