Aims:

• Practice sequencing numbers up to 10.
• Build understanding of what number comes next in a sequence.

Goals:

• Children put numbers 1–10 in correct order.
• Children identify the next number in a sequence.

Objectives:

• Arrange number cards or objects in order from 1 to 10.
• Predict or state what comes before or after a given number.

Transformation:

• Move from isolated number knowledge to understanding number order.

Foundation:

• Recognition of numbers up to 10.

What Happens Next:

• Prepares for patterning, skip counting, and simple operations.

Skill Progression:

• Number sequencing
• Predicting and reasoning

Sample Activities:

• Number Line: Arrange cards or objects in order.
• What’s Next? Game: Given a number, say or show what comes next (or before).
• Missing Number: Fill in missing numbers in a sequence.

Assessment:

• Observe sequencing skills and ability to identify the next number.

Materials:

• Number cards (1–10)
• Visual number lines
• Toys or manipulatives for sequencing

Differentiation:

• Use large visuals or hands-on materials.
• Provide number chants or songs for reinforcement.

Integration:

• Reference order during daily routines (lining up, calendar, passing out items).
