As we were developing our IPC theme animals to the snake, we talked about different amount of snakes made with pipe cleaners as an math activity. As all the children saw the little red snakes made with pipe cleaners were put under the correct number from one to five. We started to counting from number one to five as well together. Later on, all the children got their own chance to practice count and put the correct amount of little snakes under a certain number individually. They found the activity so fun and interesting to learn as well as to play.
We have been working on the following Lpfö goals:
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.
