Follow-up Activities
Sorting: Collect items to be sorted, such as lids, buttons, cut-outs, etc.
Counting: Collect items to be counted, such as crayons, pencils, counters, small plastic toys, as well as what was mentioned with sorting. *When it comes to counting, depending on the amount, introduce skip-counting by grouping the items by 2's, 5's, and/or 10's. Having items in sets, makes it easier to young children to understand the concept.
Patterning: Use items previously suggested and make a fun activity by having children create various patterns, such as repeating patterns (ABAB, ABCABC, ABCDABCD, ABBC, ABBC) or have them design their own stating the pattern used.
More/Less: Fold a piece of paper into two sections. On one section, place a group of items. Children are to show an amount that is either more, less, or the same, and then orally justify their response.
Capacity: Using various containers, fill each one with the same item (just a different amount in each), and then have the students sort these containers in order of which has more.
