Use One-to-One Correspondence Skills with this Counting Objects Board Game 

Can your students count to 5? Strengthen one-to-one correspondence skills with this counting to 5 board game.

To play, each player chooses a game piece and places it on start. Player 1 takes the top card from the deck, counts the objects, and moves their game piece to the first umber that matches their card. Play continues until each player draws a card that matches the last space on the game board.

Through this activity, students will show they can use one-to-one correspondence and count up to 5 objects.
