Hi there! Are you ready to have some fun with numbers? Let’s see what’s inside this green present with an orange bow. Let’s open it together!
Surprise! It’s the number nine! We can show nine like this: 9. But did you know we can also spell it with letters? It’s spelled N-I-N-E.
Let’s use a ten frame to count to nine. We fill it with counters, starting from the top left and going to the right. Ready? Let’s count together:
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Great job! We filled the ten frame with nine counters. Now, let’s move them around and count again. We still have:
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Still nine!
Do you like games? Let’s look at some dice. How many dots do you see?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine dots!
Now, let’s check out some dominoes. How many dots are there?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine dots again!
Let’s draw nine tally marks. Ready?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
How about rings? How many do you see?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine rings!
Look at these shiny emeralds. How many are there?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine emeralds!
Let’s draw nine tic-tac-toe games. Each game has nine spaces. Let’s count the spaces:
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
How many sandwiches do we have?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine sandwiches!
We’ve counted up to nine. Now, let’s count back from nine to zero:
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, zero.
Zero means none. Let’s clap and count back up to nine!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Let’s trace the number nine in the air with our finger. Start at the top, make a little circle, then a line down. That’s how we make a nine!
Great job! You learned so much about the number nine today!
Number Hunt: Go on a number hunt around your home or classroom. Look for the number nine in books, on clocks, or even on packaging. How many times can you find the number nine? Share your discoveries with a friend or family member.
Build a Number Nine Garden: Use small objects like buttons, pebbles, or beads to create a garden with nine items. Arrange them in different patterns or shapes. Can you make a circle, a line, or a triangle with your nine objects? Count them out loud to make sure you have nine each time.
Story Time with Nine: Create a short story or a drawing about a day in the life of the number nine. What adventures does the number nine go on? Who are its friends? Share your story or drawing with the class and see how many different stories we can create about the number nine!

Welcome to our learning session!
I wonder what’s inside this green present with an orange bow. Let’s open it! Here we go!
It’s the number nine! We can show nine as a number like this. How else can we show nine? We can spell the word “nine” with letters: N-I-N-E.
This is how you sign the number nine. Look at this ten frame! Let’s fill it with counters until we have nine. Remember to go from left to right, top to bottom, and don’t skip any squares.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
There, we’ve shown the number nine in our ten frame. Now let’s take these nine counters and put them in a different pattern.
[Music]
We didn’t add or take away any counters, so we should still have nine.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Wow, still nine!
Let’s rearrange them again. We still have nine.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Yes, we still have nine counters because we didn’t add any or take any away.
Counters are fun, but let’s show the number nine in some other ways. Do you like to play games?
Look at these dice. How many dots are showing?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine dots!
What about dominoes? How many dots are on this one?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine dots in all!
Here’s another domino. How many dots does it have?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine dots!
Now let’s draw nine tally marks.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
[Music]
I bet we can think of even more ways to show the number nine!
How many rings do you see?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine rings!
Look at these emeralds. How many are there?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine green emeralds!
Let’s draw nine tic-tac-toe games.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine tic-tac-toe games! And look, each game has nine spaces.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. There are nine spaces in a game of tic-tac-toe!
Now, how many sandwiches do we have?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine sandwiches!
There are so many fun ways to show the number nine! We’ve counted up to nine together quite a few times. Now let’s count back from nine all the way down to zero.
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, zero.
Remember, zero is the same as none.
Let’s clap and count together back up to nine!
[Music]
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Now point at the number nine and use your finger to trace it in the air. Here we go!
Start close to the top, make a little circle, then a line. That’s the way to make a nine! Great job!
Nine!
