One page to give before the first lesson of the unit on numbers to 10, to see what children already know. Read each of its six questions aloud: a small picture beside each question number (a sun, a moon, a car) lets you say "Find the sun. How many bananas?" Children count a scattered group, trace and write two numbers, count the dots in a ten frame, draw dots in an empty ten frame, find how many there are when 1 more comes, and write the numbers just before and just after a number. It has a Score line, and the key names the lesson each question leads into. The unit review and the unit test are packs of their own.
Give the pre-check to a small group at a table before the first lesson, reading one question at a time and waiting until everyone is done. Then sort the children by what they missed: a child who loses track in a scattered group needs counters to move as they count, and one who counts every dot in a ten frame is ready to learn that the top row is 5. A low score at the start is no surprise; it shows where to begin.
Use it to see what your child knows before the unit on numbers to 10 starts. Read each question aloud and let your child point and count out loud.
