Numeration

I got this lovely idea from Pinterest yesterday.  This morning I had to run to Michaels for something and decided to look for the materials to make this numeration work for Magoo.

This work proved to be incredibly simple to make.







Materials:
  • 1 green basket (score, the baskets are 50% off this week!)
  • 1 sprig of Ivy (one sprig has 48 leaves on it--the work needs 45)
  • 1 sheet of white cardstock
  • 1 sheet of tan cardstock or the back of a pad of paper
  • Numeral stickers 0-9
I plan to cut the the white paper 2x2 and the tan 2 1/2x2 1/2 a bit larger and then laminate the squares.  I bought raised stickers so they will go on top of the laminate.



Direct Aim:     ·  Concentration              ·  Logic & Reasoning
                        ·  Coordination                ·  Problem Solving/Decision Making
                        ·  Confidence                   ·  Learning names of numbers 1-10
                        ·  Independence               ·  Furthering Math Development
                        ·  Order                           ·  Sequencing Numbers
                        ·  Predictability                 ·  Gaining Concepts of Numbers
                        ·  Exactness                     ·  Concreteness




Indirect Aim:  
  • Reinforce the concept of zero (0)
  • An understanding of the constancy of the abstraction of numerals: four is always four of something; its quantity is “four-ness”; it is not dependent on its mass. 
  • Reinforcement and verification as to whether the child knows: sequence of numbers, the association of a specific symbol and the corresponding numerical set, and how many separate units are needed to form each set 1 to 10.
  • Unconscious preparation for the decimal system, linear counting and abstractions.

 Preparation:  Spindle Boxes

This is how mine turned out...
