Students play the game by selecting the numbers on the board in order from smallest to largest. If the order is correct, a fish will come and eat the numbers. If the order is incorrect, the fish releases the numbers from its mouth and students can try again. Each round consists of different numbers ranging from 1 to 100.
Count with Lecky teaches children to recognize numbers and count objects. The activity features an alien named Lecky who attempts to “catch” and “count” different objects.
