Ideas for home
- When playing games, eating snacks, shopping, or gardening: - Show amounts in two parts: “How many in all?” - Show a total and take part away: “How many are left?”
- Show a total and a part: “Of the 10 flowers, 5 are yellow, so how many are pink?”
- Ask your child about equations that could represent their thinking and why.
- Encourage your child to ask you questions by making up stories about situations that involve addition or subtraction.
- Use puzzle pieces to develop and reinforce the features of 2D shapes, for example: - the number of sides and the pointiness of corners - that sides are straight or curved - whether the shape is closed or open.
- Ask your child to notice what the rules are for sorting in the house (e.g. in the kitchen cabinets, drawers, or the clothes dresser).
