Count to 50 by ones

Kindergarten · Counting to 100 · question 1 of 3

0 of 12

12 rungs. A star at the top.

32, , 34, 35

How it is taught

0:00 of 2:03

Each next number is one more.

32 is followed by 33.

Read it: Count by ones on the line

After 37 comes 38: 1 tick on. After 59 comes 60: the ones run out, and a new ten starts.

  1. Find the number you are on: 37.
  2. Move 1 tick on.
  3. Say the next number: 38.

Each tick on the line is 1 more.

After a number that ends in 9, the ones start again at 0 and the tens go up: 59, then 60.

The same rule works all the way to 100: after 99 comes 100.

Counting by ones is 1 tick on. After a 9, a new ten starts.

Saying 50 after 59, as if the tens went back.

The tens go up: 59, then 60.

After 19 comes ___? — 20. 19 ends in 9, so a new ten starts: 20.
