I Can Count from 1 to 20 Teaching Cards
Product Information
Traditional math resources often cater to left-brain learners with sequential, detailed, and repetitive content, leaving behind those who learn differently, such as right-brain learners who thrive on visuals, colors, and patterns. Child1st math resources address this gap by providing materials designed for visual spatial, kinesthetic, and other unique learners, ensuring they grasp math concepts effectively.
With right-brain-friendly math, children gain a solid understanding of numbers and math procedures through engaging visuals, stories, and hands-on activities that leverage their learning strengths. I Can Count from 1 to 20 Teaching Cards make learning numbers fun and easy for young children. With colorful visuals and catchy rhymes, each card introduces a number in a memorable way. The unique jingle accompanying each number adds to the fun while reinforcing learning. These cards also serve as a foundation for future math skills, connecting with Right-Brained Addition & Subtraction for continued learning.
By embracing natural learning methods like storytelling, vivid imagery, music, and movement, Child1st math lays a valuable foundation for children's number sense, fostering enjoyment and confidence in math from an early age.
I Can Count from 1-20 Teaching Cards are available in two formats:
- Download - printable PDF file of the teaching cards
- Slideshow – include PowerPoint format with audio
Interactive Movements
Each number comes alive with corresponding movements, promoting cognitive development and enhancing comprehension in an engaging way.
Playful Lyrics
Set to the familiar tune of “Baa Baa Black Sheep,” the fun rhymes are perfect for singing or reading aloud. Whether sung a cappella, played instrumentally, or simply read, the rhythmic patterns benefit your child's learning.
Counting Exploration
Beyond memorization, this book fosters a deeper understanding of numbers by associating them with real-life objects. Moving from abstract concepts to tangible understanding, your child builds a strong foundation in number sense.
Multi-Modal Learning
Create a stimulating environment for your child's growth through varied activities like singing, counting, kinesthetic activities, and number recognition games. This holistic approach nurtures their development across multiple domains.
Memory Enhancement
The music and rhymes enhance memory, stimulating parts of the brain responsible for retention and understanding. Rhymes promote acoustic encoding, making information easier to recall.
Developmental Benefits
Music supports various aspects of children's development, including cooperation, listening skills, social interaction, and language acquisition. It also fosters retention of information and aids in the development of reading skills.
Concrete-Abstract Connection
Concept teaching materials like I Can Count from 1 to 20 bridge the gap between abstract numbers and tangible objects, fostering a deeper understanding. Through engaging activities and hands-on exploration, children solidify their grasp of numerical concepts while having fun.

Frequently Asked Questions
Math can often be an abstract subject, filled with symbols that may pose challenges for children who are visual and spatial processors. These learners thrive when they have access to an educational approach that conveys the meaning of mathematical symbols and procedures in ways that align with their unique learning style.
Right-brain dominant learners, in particular, have distinct needs when it comes to learning math. They excel when they can comprehend the underlying concepts and the meaning behind mathematical operations, rather than relying on rote procedures. For these learners, memorization is often less effective because the information tends not to stick in long-term memory. Kinesthetic children, who frequently possess a strong spatial and holistic perception of math, tend to see the bigger picture surrounding mathematical problems. They can often visualize or intuit solutions without needing to follow the minute, historical steps often taught in traditional math education.
To effectively engage right-brain dominant learners, it is crucial to encourage them to explore the captivating patterns that emerge within the realm of numbers. By presenting numbers in a broader context, these learners can remember how to solve problems and recall number facts more readily. The use of visual imagery, storytelling, and hands-on activities plays a central role in their learning style, despite these elements not being traditionally associated with math education. By incorporating these strategies, educators can help right-brain dominant learners make sense of and excel in the world of mathematics.
