Have learners identify a number on the numeral chart, count objects up to that number on the card. E.g. Point 15. Ask them to share the 15 counters to two people any how they want. Ask in what different ways will they share it. Have them decompose and compose the 15 counters given to them. Scaffold them and support them when they struggle.
