Build strong mathematical foundations all year long with the Numeracy and Number Talk Toolkit for 1st Grade—a comprehensive, grade-specific resource designed to deepen number sense and strengthen numeracy skills through consistent, meaningful routines.
Numeracy and number talks are powerful tools for developing flexible thinking, confidence, and conceptual understanding. They help students see relationships between numbers, reason strategically, and communicate their thinking—skills that are essential for long-term math success.
Whether you're launching a numeracy block or embedding number talks into your daily routine, this toolkit gives you everything you need to deliver intentional, high-impact math instruction that meets students right where they are.
In 1st Grade, the year begins with numeracy talks and students move into number talks towards the end of the year. Both types of talks are supported with this toolkit.
