Sorting, Patterns and Counting

 

November lessons are all about food, family and fun.  MCP math lessons do not rely on worksheets but hands-on activities like sorting with these food shaped erasers.  We have thousands (I don't think we're exaggerating) of items for the children to sort, create patterns and count.  What can you and your child do at home?  A lot!  

We have sorting trays at school.  
These are readily available at most dollar type stores or your favorite superstore.  Look in the party section.  Or just use a napkin or plate...


Or even the floor!

What can you find at home? A lot! Coins, buttons, cereal, Hot Wheels, shoes, action figures, blocks, LEGOS---use your imagination.  Anything you have a lot of your child will be able to sort, create patterns and count. 

We start with an AB pattern and will continue to introduce additional patterns throughout the school year (AAB, ABB and ABC).
