, QUESTION 1
In your own words, differentiate between the following concepts and illustrate
with examples (Do not copy the examples from the study guide or textbook, be
creative and come up with your own):
1. Object counting: Object counting refers to the process of determining the total
number of individual items or objects in a given set. It involves visually identifying
and enumerating each item one by one. Object counting is fundamental to early
math skills and is often one of the first counting methods children learn. It is a
basic form of counting that helps build a solid foundation for more advanced
counting techniques.
Example: Let's say you have a basket of fruits containing three apples, four oranges,
and two bananas. To find out how many fruits are there in total, you would perform
object counting by pointing to each fruit and saying the numbers aloud: "One apple,
two apples, three apples, one orange, two oranges, three oranges, four oranges, one
banana, two bananas." The total count would be 3 + 4 + 2 = 9 fruits.
2. Counting on: Counting on involves starting from a given number and adding one
or more additional items to find the total quantity. Instead of starting from one
every time, you begin with the last number you counted and continue counting on
from there. This method is efficient when dealing with larger numbers and helps
improve mental arithmetic.
Example: Suppose you want to find the total number of students in a classroom, and
you already know that there are 20 boys present. To find the total count, you would
start with 20 and count on the number of girls: "20 (boys), 21 (girls), 22 (girls), 23
(girls)." The total count would be 20 + 3 = 23 students.
3. Counting backwards: Counting backwards is the reverse of counting forwards.
It involves starting from a given number and subtracting one or more items to find
the remaining quantity. It is a useful skill in various situations, such as counting
down to an event or solving subtraction problems.
Example: Let's say you have a stack of 10 books, and you want to know how many
books are left after giving away 4 books to a friend. You would count backward from
