The document presents a method for counting on fingers to develop number sense in children. It uses configurations of fingers to represent numbers from 1 to 10, going from left to right. Counting this way allows children to see relationships between numbers, such as 3 + 2 = 5 and 5 + 1 = 6. By representing numbers as groups, it helps children understand the value of numbers without having to count each item. The method is meant to align with the left to right directionality of reading in English.
