Activity Synthesis
- “En la siguiente actividad, vamos a comparar el número de chaquiras que hay en nuestras bolsas con el número de chaquiras que hay en la bolsa de un compañero” // “In the next activity, we will get to compare the number of beads in our bag to the beads in a partner’s bag.”
Activity 2: ¿Quién tiene más? [OPTIONAL] (15 minutes)
Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to compare groups of up to 20 objects. This activity is optional because the standards do not require students to compare groups of objects or written numbers beyond 10. Students can continue switching bags and counting, representing, and comparing sets of beads, as time permits.
Advances: Conversing
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Required Preparation
- Students need the bags of beads and their representations from the previous activity.
Launch
- Groups of 2
- “Intercambien su bolsa de chaquiras con un compañero. Como hicieron antes, clasifiquen las chaquiras en dos grupos. Descifren cuántas chaquiras hay en cada grupo. Muestren cómo pensaron. Usen dibujos, números o palabras” // “Switch your bag of beads with a partner. Just like you did before, sort the beads into two groups. Figure out how many beads are in each group. Show your thinking using drawings, numbers, or words.”
- 3 minutes: independent work time
Activity
- “Con su pareja, comparen el número de chaquiras de cada bolsa. ¿Cuál bolsa tiene más chaquiras azules? ¿Cuál bolsa tiene menos chaquiras amarillas?” // “Work with your partner to compare the number of beads in each bag. Which bag has more blue beads? Which bag has fewer yellow beads?”
- 3 minutes: partner work time
- “¿Cuántas chaquiras hay en total en sus bolsas? Escriban un número que muestre cuántas chaquiras hay en total” // “How many beads are in your bag altogether? Write a number to show how many beads there are altogether.”
- 2 minutes: independent work time
- “Con su pareja, comparen el número de chaquiras de cada bolsa. ¿Quién tiene más chaquiras en su bolsa?” // “Work with your partner to compare the number of beads in each bag. Who has more beads in their bag?”
- 3 minutes: partner work time
- Monitor for students who use objects or drawings to share, for example by lining up and matching the objects. Monitor for students who use their knowledge of the count sequence to compare the written numbers.

Lesson Synthesis
Lesson Synthesis
Draw two representations, labelled Tyler and Priya:
Tyler
Priya
“Tyler y Priya mostraron cuántas chaquiras rojas y cuántas chaquiras azules tenían en sus bolsas. ¿Con cuál dibujo piensan que es más fácil descifrar si hay menos chaquiras azules o menos chaquiras rojas?” // “Tyler and Priya both showed how many red and blue beads they had in their bag. Which drawing do you think makes it easier to figure out if there are fewer blue beads or red beads?” (Tyler’s makes it easier to compare because he wrote the numbers. I know that 8 is less than 9. Priya’s makes it easier to compare because she drew circles like they are in a 10-frame. I can see that there is 1 fewer blue bead.)
