Math Preschool Theme
These are a few of math preschool theme activities that we did. For more, check out the Math Activities page.
Abacus
I simply showed Don what 1 - 3 looks like in the abacus and asked him to 'give me 1 - 3'
Counting game
- I gave Don 1 object and told him "this is one"
- Then I did the same for 2 - 4
- Once he understood the idea of 1 - 4, we pointed to objects that has 1- 4 things. For example, his tricycle has 3 wheels. His toy motorcycle has 2. He has 1 nose, etc
- He could easily understood 1 - 3 but stumbled a little when it comes to 4. After I showed him that a car has 4 wheels, he understood it
Domino
Pattern recognition. Don still needs to count the dots to play this game but he's starting to realize that there is a pattern, that he doesn't really need to count the dots.
Geoboard
I actually bought the geoboard to prepare for his math lesson but wasn't going to do it until a lot later. But Don found the board and was playing with it and was excited that he could make lots of different shapes with the rubber band. He's learning on his own.
