Building Number Sense

Today we worked on our number sense. We did some fun activities that you can do at home to work on counting, number recognition and formation. 

We started with listening and counting as I clapped. They wrote the corresponding number on their board. As the numbers got larger, this became progressively harder! 

Next, I held up fingers on each hand (3 fingers on one hand and 2 on the other, for example). Their job was to write the total number.  They loved this one and didn't even realize they were learning to add!

Finally, I gave a number and asked them to write the number that was one more or one less.

If you are looking for a way to help your child or for something fun to do, try these activities!
