One and Many


What is "One"?

"One" means just a single thing. It's like having one toy, one friend, or one cookie.

What is "Many"?

"Many" means more than one. It's like having lots of toys, many friends, or a bunch of cookies.

 Examples:

- One book on a shelf

- Many books in a library

- One pet at home

- Many pets in a shelter


How Can We Count "One" and "Many"?

We can count things to see if we have one or many:

- Counting blocks: 1, 2, 3... (many blocks)

- Counting fingers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... (many fingers)

 Fun Activities:

- Counting games with toys or blocks

- Singing songs with "one" and "many" themes

- Drawing pictures with one or many objects

Here's a story for kindergarten students about One & Many:

Bobby's Blocks

Bobby loved playing with blocks. He had one big, red block that was his favorite.


One day, Bobby's friend, Rocky, brought many blocks to share. There were blocks of all shapes and sizes!


Bobby was excited. "Wow, Rocky! You have many blocks!" he exclaimed.


Rocky smiled. "Yes, I do! And you have one special block."


Bobby and Rocky built a tall tower, using one block at a time. As they built, they counted: "One block, two blocks, three blocks...


When they finished, Bobby looked at the tower and said, "We used many blocks to build this! But my favorite is still my one, big, red block."


Rocky smiled. "I'm glad you like your special block, Bobby. And I'm happy we could build something together with many blocks."


Question for discussion:

1. How many blocks did Bobby have at first?

2. How many blocks did Rocky bring?

3. What did Bobby and Rocky build together?

4. How many legs does one cat have?

5. Can you count how many pencils are on the table?

6. Do you have one favorite book or many?

7. If you have one apple and I give you another, how many apples do you have now?


Activity ideas

1. Block Counting:

Provide blocks and ask students to count how many blocks they have. Then, ask them to find one block.

2. Toy Counting:

Gather various toys and ask students to count how many toys are in the group. Then, ask them to find one toy.

3. Counting Buttons

Provide buttons and a set of number cards (1-5). Ask students to count out the correct number of buttons and glue them onto the corresponding number card.


4. One or Many?:

Prepare a set of pictures with different quantities. Ask students to identify whether each picture shows one or many items.
