Learn Number 6 lyrics:
So many presents
I wonder what they hide
Let's open one
To see what is inside
I wonder what's inside this purple present with yellow lines. Let's open it
Here… We… Go!
It's the number six!
We can show six as a number like this.
How else can we show six? We can spell the word six with letters.
s… i… x… six!
This is how you sign the number six.
Look at this 10 frame:
Let's fill it with counters until we have six. Remember to go from left to right, top to bottom, and don't skip any squares.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
There! We've shown the number 6 in our 10 frame. Now, let's take these six counters and put them in a different pattern.
We didn't add or take away any counters, so we should still have 6.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Wow, still 6 Let's re-arrange them again…
do we still have six?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Yes! We still have 6 counters because we didn't add any or take any away.
Counters are fun, but let's show the number 6 in some other ways. Do you like to play games? Look at this die.
How many dots are showing?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Six dots.
What about dominoes? How many dots are on this one?
1, 2, 3, … 4, 5, 6 Six dots in all.
Here's another domino. How many dots does it have?
1, 2, 3, 4… 5, 6 Six dots.
Now, let's draw six tally marks:
One, two, three, four,
Number five shuts the door … six
I'll bet we can think of even more ways to show the number six. What if we draw six circles?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Six circles.
Here are some trapezoids. How many do you think we have?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Six trapezoids.

There are so many fun ways to show the number 6. We've counted up to 6 together quite a few times. Now, let's count back from 6 all the way down to zero.
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0
Remember, zero is the same as none. Let's clap and count together back up to six.
