😃How to Count?
😎Counting On – We can count on by saying by numbers while touching on each object once.
✌Here, for instance, we can count the buttons by touching each button once.
🎇Counting on also requires us to count forward. Forward counting is counting by adding one more, every time.
🎇Here, we forward count while putting the buttons in the jar, to find the number of the buttons
