In this fun interactive preschool class, we'll work on developmentally-appropriate math skills.  Some of these skills include: number recognition, counting, building a pattern, sorting by size/color/shape, one-to-one correspondence (where a student can point to individual items and say a number for each item, counting up as they go), and simple measurement.  We'll work on these skills through songs and fun games and actvities.  Students will need something to use as math counters for this class (blocks, play cars, buttons, mini erasers, etc.) and crayons/markers and paper or a whiteboard and markers.  Students are also invited to bring a stuffed animal to class, to "learn" alongside them.

This will be a fun interactive class where students are encouraged to participate.  Individual math topics will be covered in all classes, so feel free to come and go in this ongoing class as it fits your schedule.
