Our plan for today!
''Hello parents and children,
Let’s continue the weekly program focused on numbers. I am vibing positive energy to you through the lessons and hope you enjoy your time at home!''🌞
Subject: Numbers
Key terms: number, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, fingers
Learning objectives: Revise counting one to ten, get familiar with the shape of five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten and start identifying these numbers.
Materials and preparation: computer/tablet, flashcards, playdough, white paper, markers, toy car, generally toys(plastic fruit, teddies, balls, etc.)
➤Introduction
Today we are singing together and counting our fingers. Please follow the link below and watch the video. Let’s count together!😃
Use the rest of the flashcads you have from the first number lesson. Let's practise counting for number six, seven, eight, nine and ten. Ask your children to repeat after you.
➤Fine motor activities
The fine motor activities are the same like the first lesson plan about numbers 1-5:
1. For the first activity you are going to use the flashcards 6-10 and some pom poms. Ask for each card ‘Which number is this? Let’ count!’ and count the figures on the card to find which number it is. Then, ask from your child to put as many pom poms as it is needed according to the number. Repeat for each number.
2. In order to familiarize with the shape of the numbers, you can draw huge numbers with small lines in between so they look like roads. Take a car and drive in the lines like this. 💥It is important for the children to get used to the shape of each number. Be the model for them and with your finger show them how you write the number and ask them to follow the line with their finger after you.
3. For the last fine motor activity you need playdough. Take one big number card and try to place with your child the playdough on the number so you create the shape of it. The best option is to make a huge worm and then put it between the lines. Repeat for numbers six to 10.
➤ Educational online games
Ιn the link you can find a great math game about counting and recognising the numbers from 1 to 10. The kids have to click on the birthday cake candles to light them up, count them and find the right number. It is funny, easy to play and a bit challenging to answer. Enjoy!
➤Action game
For this game you will need many toys of any kind like plastic fruits, plastic kitchen tools, teddies, books, etc. Choose ten corners in the house and place the number flashcards on the floor. Ask your children to recognize the numbers one by one and they have to put the corresponding amount of toys on each number(ex. 1 ball on 1, 2 pans on 2, etc.). They have a lot of counting to do! Have fun!
