Grade K: Reasoning About Groups With More, Fewer, or the Same Number of Objects

Students reason about groups with more, fewer and the same number of objects in this small group mini-lesson. Students can click on more, fewer and the same and notice how the objects compare to the original group. Students practice on their own worksheets by representing quantities that are fewer, more, or the same.
