Numbers to 5 Unit: Kindergarten Guided Math Unit

Are your students ready to tackle and explore numbers 0-5? Everything you need to teach an engaging guided math unit is included here! Students will learn to recognize the numbers to 5, use counting strategies, use five frames, understand quantities to 5, and begin to compare numbers.

These units were developed to be taught whole group but would also work well in a small group guided math setting. The teacher will be guiding the students through a gradual-release model.
