Last tuesday we have introduced the wild animal monkeys to our ducklings children by showing monkey flashcards in the math and construction room. We also practiced math on counting the banana in monkey’s tummy: "How many banana does the monkey eat? "in the cozy corner. The children were very good at pasting the bananas at the Monkey’s tummy. They tried to learn that the bananas go from monkey’s mouth and then inside the tummy at last. They have also practiced to count together with the teachers. Some of the children also tried to learn math with the Monkey counting App on Ipad with the help of the teachers.
We have been working on the following Lpfö goals:
To develop their early math skills.
To develop their understanding of space, shapes, location and direction, and basic properties of sets, quantity, order and number concepts, also for measurements, time, and change.
To develop their constructive skills.
