Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tally mark and how do we use it?
Tally marks are lines used to count items. We draw four vertical lines and put a fifth line across them diagonally to make a bundle of five.
How do we find which toy is the maximum in number?
We count the items in each category and compare the numbers to find the largest value.
Why do we group toys before counting?
Grouping helps us count faster and avoids mistakes compared to counting scattered items randomly.
