About

Gus the school bus takes kindergartners on a math hunt through a pretend classroom. Children find the dot card that does not belong, tap both ways to make 7 in a 10-frame, find the name with more than 5 letters, compare a door and a chair by height and a ball and a chair by weight, spot a group of 5, tell how many windows without counting, and find the group that fills a 10-frame. Every direction is read aloud, and every wrong answer gets a spoken hint.
