This week the K-Prep class continued learning about numbers! We practiced counting (0-20), number formation, and putting numbers into the correct order.
We also read the book “Snappy Little Numbers”, which was a fun and interactive way to practice counting!
Our ocean unit study took us outside to roll and count on HUGE dice!
Find the correct numeral that matches what we rolled and counted and color it in!
We’ve been working hard during the month of December on reviewing numbers 1-20 with a focus on number 12. The number twelve seems to be tricky for most of the students because it doesn’t fall into the basic “teen” rule. “Numbers in the teens, they start with a one.” We used the classroom clock as a reference for numbers 1-12 and watched a fun, interactive video that put our lesson to music. Music is a great way to help children learn, young AND old. If you’d like to watch the video with your child, click on the photo below.
Mr. Tenny loves to eat numbers! We reviewed our numbers 1-12 this week as we strengthened our hand muscles in preparation for writer’s workshop that begins next week. Keep working on those name during homework!
Basic math and number concepts utilized in a preschool or kindergarten prep classroom set the foundation for learning more advanced math concepts. Early exposure to math and number activities will promote your child’s comfort with these skills. Also, additional opportunities to practice these skills will increase your child’s confidence when working with math and number concepts and will lead him to believe he is “good at math.” Click HERE for some fun activities to do with your child at home in all areas of math.
