Tips on how to use this exercise at home and at school.
Early math concepts
In this exercise, the child works with counting. They start with the first part, where he counts the number of objects, first counting them one by one on his fingers (he puts his finger on each object just once), then assigns the number of symbols (fingers, lines, cubes, etc.) to this group and finally assigns a word name (by saying aloud, for example, "two").
Why is this exercise important?
The exercise supports the development of early number ideas when the child begins to realize that symbols and fingers represent a specific number of objects. They realise that groups of objects have something in common that is not related to their visible properties and that is number.
Who is this exercise suitable for?
This form of exercise is suitable for children who have not 'caught on' during their natural development and need to be given these exercises. Again, this is the pre-school period.
