QUESTION 1: PRE-NUMBER CONCEPTS

1. One-to-One Correspondence

One-to-one correspondence is the ability to match one object to one number or one
set of objects to another set. For example, when a child sets the table and places one

plate in front of each chair, they are engaging in one-to-one correspondence.

Contribution to Number Understanding: This concept helps children understand
that numbers represent quantities and that each object in a set can be counted. It
forms the basis for counting, addition, and subtraction, as the child learns that each
object corresponds to a single number.

Role in Logical Thinking: One-to-one correspondence allows children to develop the
ability to recognize that numbers are symbols representing actual quantities. This
logical thinking is essential for more advanced mathematical operations like addition,
subtraction, and multiplication.



2. Comparison

Comparison involves assessing the difference or similarity between two or more
objects or quantities. For example, a child might compare two groups of blocks to see
which has more or fewer blocks.

Contribution to Number Understanding: This concept introduces children to the
idea of equality, greater than, and less than, laying the groundwork for understanding
numerical relationships and inequalities. It helps children begin to understand relative
values and quantities, which are essential in arithmetic operations.

Role in Logical Thinking: Through comparison, children develop the ability to make
decisions based on quantitative differences. This logical skill is crucial when solving
problems that involve choosing between different sets of numbers or quantities.



3. Conservation

Conservation refers to the understanding that a quantity remains the same despite
changes in its appearance or arrangement. For instance, if water is poured from a tall,




thin glass into a short, wide one, the child realizes that the amount of water remains
