As you saw in the Subitizing and Unitizing videos, these Counting Principles are mighty important.

Consider using these images to prompt number talks around subitizing and unitizing as we push students thinking from additive to multiplicative over time.

Visual Prompts

Alternatively:

Math Is Visual Prompt #2

Math Is Visual Prompt #3

Math Is Visual Prompt #4

Consider asking students to explain different ways that they could verbally and numerically/symbolically represent the number of fruit shown in each Math Is Visual prompt.
