This Back To School Counting Adapted Book And Activities, "Ten On The Bus" is a fresh spin on the classic nursery rhyme, "Ten In The Bed." This adapted book and activities set focuses on counting, identifying numbers and number words and the concepts of more and less.

This download includes:
1 Adapted Book
1 Set of Number Sequencing Strips
1 Set of Counting Clip Cards

1 Set of "Which Has More?" Dry Erase/Clip Cards

In this activity, the teacher or therapist reads the story to a small group of students, as students follow counting the kids on the bus and matching a number and number word to each page.

Students working at an independent level may read through the back to school themed book in a math or literacy center or an independent work station. There are several extension activities included for extra practice. (Please see photos and video for details.)

Sample Text:

Early in the morning,

on the first school day…

There was ONE on the bus,

and MORE on the way!

THERE WERE TEN AT THE BUS!

There were ten on the bus

with a lot to discuss!

“I’m ready!” said Freddy.

So the door opened up and

and Freddy hopped off.

There were nine on the bus

with a lot to discuss.

“Gotta go!” said Jo.

So the door opened up and

and Jo hopped off.

There were eight on the bus

with a lot to discuss.

“Time to leave!” said Steve

So the door opened up and

and Steve hopped off.
