Children find their name and place it on a boy or girl cutout.
At this point the children come up to a Karaoke type microphone to tell us if they are a boy or girl as well as their name, age, birthday and address. This makes daily practice of this type of skill more interesting. Amplifying their voices also helps both the student and the teacher hear articulation errors that might need work. We then count the number of girls and boys that are present in the class that day. The names are attached to the cutouts with velcro.
