What’s Included In Your Free Download?
Level 1: Count the Water
Students begin with the basics by counting water drops. They’ll learn to recognize numbers and associate them with the word form, such as “one/1” and “five/5”.
Level 2: Count the Flames in the Building
This level challenges students to count flames, helping them practice number recognition in context. Phrases like “one/1 flame” and “five/5 flames” aid in vocabulary and sentence building.
Level 3: Count the Fire Dogs in the Fire Truck
The final level involves counting fire dogs, reinforcing the skills learned in previous levels with more complex sentences like “Ten/10 fire dogs in the fire truck.”
