9 easy, everyday ways to practise math concepts at home with your preschooler
. As you share a sandwich, say, “I’m cutting the sandwich in half so we each get one piece.” Or ask, “If there are three pieces of bread and six of us who want some, what can we do?”3. Use different sizes and shapes of plastic cups and measuring cups to play with in the bath and to compare amounts. With younger kids, simply explore the concepts of “full” and “empty” by filling up cups and pouring them out together.
6. As kids lie in bed, play “I Spy” together, using words like “under,” “over,” “next to,” and “behind.” Clue each other in as to what you spy by describing where an object is. You might say, “I spy something under the clock” or “I spy something next to the bookshelf.” Take turns!7. The simple act of setting the table offers many ways for children to learn basic math concepts. One-to-one correspondence, an essential math skill, is a perfect example.
8. Patterning can also be learned while setting the table for dinner. You can offer a model for a place setting , then let your child repeat the pattern with each place setting. You will need to establish the patterns by laying at least two place settings. 9. Ask, “What is different? What is the same?” Compare spoons , plates , glasses , or any other items.© 2019 by Rosemarie T. Truglio PhD with Pamela Thomas, Running Press.
