Lego tower

Math

• The child learned about counting and number recognition as they counted the number of Lego pieces used to build the tower.
• They practiced sorting and classifying as they organized the different colored Lego pieces before starting to build.
• The child developed their spatial awareness and geometry skills as they stacked the Lego pieces to create a tall tower.
• They learned about measurement as they compared the height of their Lego tower to other objects in the environment.

For continued development, encourage the child to explore different shapes and patterns when building their Lego tower. They can experiment with creating symmetrical designs or try to build towers using specific number patterns. Additionally, they can practice addition and subtraction by adding or removing Lego pieces from their tower.
