Guided Practice:

• Take a Fish Sorting Mat and a handful of Goldish® crackers. “I am going to sort my ish by 

color. I put all the red ish together on the red square.” (Voy a ordenar mis peces por color. 
He puesto todos los peces rojos juntos en el cuadro rojo.)

• Ask students to sort their ish by color using their Fish Sorting Mat.

• Take a copy of the Fish Graph and say, “Help me count my red ish.” (Ayúdenme a contar

mis peces rojos.) Count aloud with the students.
• “Now I am going to color in the boxes on my Fish Graph. Help me count.” (Ahora voy a

colorear los cuadros en la gráica de peces. Ayúdenme a contar.)

• Color in the number of boxes in the red column on the Fish Graph corresponding to the

number of red ish.

ish?” (¿Qué color tiene más/menos? ¿Qué color tiene el mayor número de peces/el 

menor número de peces?)
