Phase 1: Foundation

Lessons 1-20 · The math journey begins here. Phase 1 introduces numbers 0-10, counting, one-to-one correspondence, and number recognition.

Concepts Introduced

Symbol	Lesson	Type	Example
0	1	number	zero, nothing
1	1	number	one, single
2	2	number	two, pair
3	3	number	three
=	4	symbol	equals, is the same as
4	5	number	four
5	7	number	five
6	9	number	six
7	11	number	seven
8	13	number	eight
9	15	number	nine
10	17	number	ten
>	18	symbol	greater than
<	18	symbol	less than

Skills

Recognizing and naming numbers 0-10
Counting objects with one-to-one correspondence
Writing numerals 0-10
Comparing numbers (more, less, equal)
Ordering numbers from least to greatest

Tips for Teachers

Go slowly. The learner is building number sense — the ability to understand what numbers mean, not just recite them. Use physical objects (fingers, blocks, dots) alongside the screen. Each lesson should take 5–10 minutes.

What to Expect

By the end of Phase 1, the learner will recognize all numbers 0–10, count objects accurately, and understand basic comparisons (more/less/equal).
