Lesson: Numbers & Counting

Theme: COLOR PLAY

Language / Recognizing (listening & responding)

• Number (Flash Cards)

• Number puzzle

Gross Motor (coordination, big movements)

• Pipe cleaner # making (asking, "what #")

Fine Motor (small movements typically w/hands)

• Baking soda color pop (learning to press w/one hand while discussing the colors you see), our son LOVES to watch this video on repeat, asking for "More Bubbles"!

Music & Reading (to help give the mind a study break)

• Bob the Train YouTube show (15min)

• Color sorted bath time (have them show you different objects with cues like, "where's green")

Crafting Notes:

Baking Soda Color Pop = Line a baking sheet with baking soda, put a little white vinegar w/ a dab of water color paint or food coloring in a few cups (one color in each). Then find something to fill the colored vinegar with, and let them see the magic of squirting it on the sheet! SEE PICS/VIDEO
