Directions: Ask your child to tell you what number she sees at the top of the page: four. With your help have her count all four of the boats. Then follow the arrows 1 and 2 to have her trace each number 4 with a red crayon. Count the number of boats and write the number on the line.
When counting, your child learns that four comes after three, which leads your child to understand one-step addition (3+1, add one number, count up 1).
