3. Identify even and odd numbers.
Look at the chart below.
- What do you notice?
- Every number ends in the digits, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0!
- Whenever you count by 2s, no matter how high you count, your numbers will always end in one of these digits.
- That’s how we know a number is even. All other number are called odd.
- We call a number even, because we can divide it evenly by two.
Let’s look at an example:
- If I had a pizza with 4 slices…
- We would be able to give two people two slices each (2 + 2 = 4).
- The pizza would be shared evenly.
Can this be shared evenly?
What about this?
4. Practice identifying even and odd quantities.
- Download the PowerPoint below and identify each ten frame as either even or odd.
- The correct answer will appear after each slide.
- Remember to select “Slideshow” at the top, and then “From Beginning.”
5. Practice sorting even and odd items.
6. Count a collection.
Count the objects in groups of twos. Determine if your collection is an odd or even number.
