Description
- Overview:
- This resource is part of Tools4NCTeachers.
A Number Talk is a brief routine (about 10 minutes) focused around developing flexibility and fluency with numbers. Through regular opportunities to work with dot images and expressions, students develop an understanding of number relationships and structure. This supports the development of early fluency skills.
This PowerPoint contains presentation slides for daily Number Talks, as well as directions and videos for implementation. Teachers may facilitate the Number Talks on these slides, or use them to inspire their own Number Talks based on student need.

I love Number Talks! This activity fully covers K.CC4 and K.CC.5. Students are able to practice counting patterns in many ways. Students also get the opportunity to learn from their peers and practice explaining their thinking. Accountable talk is so important in this process. Students will begin to see numbers as a combination and start the addition process without knowing it!
