First Grade letters and numbers

Sort of ironically, they know far more than what we are ‘writing up’. I’m not sure how many children could get to First Grade and not have a good grasp of number in particular. In spite of my being numerically challenged, everyday life is full of mathematics, (and language of course). But I really like to have this creative expression of the foundations of ‘knowledge’ and learning. It feels steady and beautiful. And if it’s fun for me as an adult, (and many other adults too), I think it would be hard for any child to find it boring - even if they have been reading fluently for years to be honest… frogs house n letters I don’t require perfection from them. Just an expression of what we have looked at. early maths Button Family! tiger button ppl tiger sums
