Actually, those are not the same. Natural numbers include zero, positive integers do not. She shoud definately use 'big naturals'.
Edit: although you could argue that it doesnt matter as 0 is arguably neither big nor large
That is a divisive opinion and not actually a fact
Yeah I find it easier to just accept the terminology of natural numbers and whole numbers so we have simple names for both.
