Understanding Counting and Number Concepts

The lesson focuses on matching numbers to pictures from 10 to 1. It begins with counting cubes to reach ten and then counts down by removing cubes one by one. Students learn to identify number parts and practice backward counting. The lesson concludes with an exit ticket task to count backward from 10 to 1.
