Sample Questions
Which numbers between 1 and 20 have exactly 4 letters in their number names?
Show answer
Four (4), Five (4), Nine (4)
Count letters in each number name: Four = F-O-U-R = 4 letters. Five = F-I-V-E = 4 letters. Nine = N-I-N-E = 4 letters. Ten = T-E-N = 3 letters. One = O-N-E = 3 letters. Six = S-I-X = 3 letters.
Which of these grouping methods would work for the objects: ball, book, pencil, apple?
Show answer
Things you can eat vs. things you cannot eat, Round objects vs. not round objects, School items vs. non-school items
Multiple groupings work: Eat/not eat: apple can be eaten, others cannot. Round/not round: ball and apple are round, book and pencil are not. School/not school: book and pencil are school items, ball and apple are not primarily school items.
The number name 'thirteen' has more letters than 'twelve'.
Show answer
True
Count letters: 'thirteen' = T-H-I-R-T-E-E-N = 8 letters. 'twelve' = T-W-E-L-V-E = 6 letters. Since 8 > 6, thirteen has more letters than twelve.
A class has 15 boys and 12 girls. If they want to make two equal teams, how many children will be in each team?
Show answer
Cannot make equal teams (27 children)
Step 1: Total children = 15 + 12 = 27. Step 2: To make equal teams, we divide by 2. Step 3: 27 ÷ 2 = 13.5, which is not a whole number. Step 4: Cannot make two equal teams with 27 children.
