• There are thirty nine students in our class. Thirty one students have signed in and eight students have not. Six students asked for leave and two students are late for the class.

II. Numbers

• Numbers are very important in our learning, work and life.
• When we talk about nubmers, there are two ways of using numbers. In one case, we only care about “how many” or “quantity”, and we use “cardinal numbers”. For example, I ask you how many apples you have eaten. You answer that you have eaten six apples. – one, two, three, four, five, six… In the other case, we care about the “order” of the things, and we use “ordinal numbers”. For example, I ask you which season in a year summer is. You answer that summer is the second season in a year. – first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth…
