The Number 9

Let's make room for "The Number Nine!" "What's the number nine anyway?" Today we will learn about the number nine. When someone says there are nine things, they are talking about the number of objects. "Like the nine planets in my mobile?" "Or the nine squares in our tic-tac-toe game?" That's right, Skylar and Henry. Those are great examples of the number nine. Can you see any other examples of the number nine in Henry and Skylar's room? There are nine baseball players in the team photograph! Is there another example of the number nine? There are nine pool balls on the bedspread! What does the number nine look like? Skylar and Henry both have the number nine on their shirts! The number nine looks a little bit like a party mask on a stick. How do you write the number nine? To write the number nine, we need to start at the very top line and make a circle from there to the middle line. Then on the right side, draw a line from the top to the bottom, but make sure it touches the circle you made. Let's practice drawing the number nine! Put your finger in the air and trace it with us! Now that is a great looking nine, thanks for helping! Can you clap nine times? Let's clap out nine together: ready, let's go! one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Today we learned all about the number nine. We learned about objects in sets of nine, the number nine, and how to write it! Up for a challenge?
