Does the quantity array test the student’s ability to count, or his or her familiarity with groupings of dots?
It was designed to test the student’s overall ability to recognize numerical value from symbols, which is a factor in the development of early numeracy. Some students will be at the stage where they are familiar with patterns of dots and can rapidly name numbers, while others will need to count each dot one-by-one.
