Counting

Math

• The child practiced numeral recognition by counting objects and matching them to the corresponding numbers.
• They developed one-to-one correspondence skills by counting and touching each object as they counted.
• They learned to visualize quantities and understand the concept of addition and subtraction through counting and grouping objects.
• They practiced counting forwards and backward, reinforcing the concept of number sequences.

For continued development, encourage the child to create their own counting activities using everyday objects, such as counting toys, fruits, or household items. This could be done through games like "I Spy" or scavenger hunts, where they count the number of items they find.
