Beginner Level
Please note that this class is scheduled for 30 minutes to give time for late comers (sometimes technology quirks happen!) and discussion. Focused class time will be closer to 20 minutes with several different activities to help keep a learner’s attention! In Fun With Numbers, we explore playing with numbers and counting! Our class will focus on learning through teacher led activities, learner interaction, and some slides to present images and game materials. As our class arrives, we welcome classmates and share something fun about our week. Our number of the day will be introduced with a counting song as we venture into different locations and count the animals there. We will talk about number of the day and how to form that letter in writing. Learners can follow along by tracing with their finger in the air, using a sand tray, or writing on paper. We will follow this activity with show or tell time. Each week before class, learners are encouraged to gather the amount of the same item to match our number of the day. For example for number five week, a learner might bring five blocks to share about with the class. If time allows at the end of class, we will play a number game together. Each week I will share a printable number worksheet covering the week’s number. This is NOT homework or required work. It is just an additional resource for learners who enjoy playing with numbers on paper. If your learner completes this paper, I would love for you to share a photo in the classroom so we can cheer them on!
Learning Goals

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Mery, a homeschooling mom to two awesome kids and over the past 20+ years, I've taught many other learners through community classes. From a very young age I loved reading and people who knew young me at the time said that the one thing they could always count on when they saw me is that I would always have a book with me. As an adult, when I was reflecting I realized that these stories that I enjoyed when I was young taught me lasting knowledge that still impacted my life as an adult. I believe that stories and hands on experiences are the best at helping us learn, so in most of my classes you'll find that we are learning through fantastic stories and learning new skills that we try on our own. I still love to read today as an adult, but I find that most of my favorite books are still the children's/young adult books that I'm reading with my kids!
