Dennis and Jody joined together. The last one to reach there is Jennifer. When you have completed all the activities to-day, ask an adult if you can post the Number and Word Posters in your room. Count out loud while pointing at the corresponding numbers of objects every night before going to bed. The criteria will vary.
Some possible criteria are colour, shape, size, or ability to roll.
It is important for the child to explain his or her own criteria for classifying objects. This helps a child to learn to state their thinking in a clear way. Responses will vary. Assure yourself that the child chose an appropriate geometric shape for each word. Responses will vary.
