Shapes
Visually display in classroom, real hands on examples to hold, discover and play with. Comparing and discussing attributes.

Counting. I use counting all the time. Examples: When washing hands I ask them to wash one finger, then the second finger, etc.

An early math concept could be a shape sorting game. The child can work on counting, recognizing and sorting the shape into the correct spot.

whatever our theme is..lets say transportation..we have small rubber cars, in red blue yellow orange green and purple, same with trucks,planes,motorcycles and trains..then we have a plastic sectioned plate they can sort by kind of transportation or by color totally up to them..

I like to have toddlers sort by color or shape
I also have them helpe count when I am giving out snacks

Jill

one early math concept is counting. we use counting everyday, example would be, counting blocks, cars, people.

Sovita

Standing in a line to enter into the class or to go out side play we count numbers. Block play is the first concept of math for infants and toddlers by counting and sorting as well as classifying.

toddlers & infants can learn early about counting. Food is a good example, if given a choice of one cookie or two, they often take the two. A sign that they are counting.

Diana Murphy

I like using patterns while inter acting with the toddlers, for instance when we sing the song "Wheels on the bus" and using hand motions during the song.

Block play in infants and toddlers is our first introduction to math. It allows comparisons of weight, size and shapes. Sorting by color and shapes.

madino

for example counting fingers,apples, candies any other countable

Virginia

I am constantly counting throughout the day be it blocks, how many friends we have, boys/girls, through dance 123 and 123. Food toys everything gets counted and sorted.

Wai Yi Chan

counting - I sing a number song, play a block, use the material to sorting and matching with the child.

Michele

Shapes they can see and feel differences and notice different numbers of sides from different shapes.

Rubana Zaman

11/14/2018 07:56:00 pm

Using everyday objects to count; cookies/crackers during snack time, lunch time. During circle, 'how many friends do you see?' Changing time, socks, slippers. During play, counting cups, bowls, balls, shapes, anything and everything.

Marylou

Encouraging the toddler to explore objects of different colors and sizes and begin grouping them to see which group has more or fewer objects in a pile

David

12/22/2018 10:48:58 pm

For toddlers, trying to count how many objects they see in a bin, the number of one particular object in a bin of assorted objects. encouraging them to sing while counting.

for infants I incorporate different sizes and weights so they can begin understanding how many objects they could fit in their hand differs based how large or heavy the object is.

Tina

circle time is the best

bouchra madih

12/26/2018 07:46:40 pm

the best time in circle time, , to involve each child to participate . using the blocks to learn shapes and sizes. exercising , jumping while we counting our steps.

Emily

12/27/2018 07:18:15 pm

Sorting and classification: a toddler may sort blocks by color or shape.

Heather

12/28/2018 02:39:30 pm

Measuring, by using a big cup and trying to fill a little cup or vice versa. Counting how many little cups one big cup can fill.

ann

on our school math has very powerful role , we mention number for everything .ej: Do yo want some bread?... How many do you want one or two? other. Can you bring me two balls... great! you got me balls red and blue.

Yelika Villamizar

In classroom with infants we count all the time: blocks, steps, toys, books,etc, and we use the representation of them often. Also, we introduce them basic shapes: circle, square, triangle, and some spatial relationships between objetects like: under, over, behind.

Luz Maria Gonzalez Duran

12/30/2018 12:39:19 pm

Blocks, are use to stack, sort by size, color in the toddler class. Then we go use them for spacial activitis.. top, under, over etc..

joana

3/5/2019 09:09:37 pm

counting blocks and sorting by there color, counting by singing a song

Joanie

12/30/2018 07:55:15 pm

Basic counting to begin our math exploration. Counting children, toys, felt story pieces, etc.
Using one to one correspondence
Counting objects as we put them away

Luz Maria Gonzalez Duran

12/30/2018 11:29:10 pm

In the infant class I tried to mix counting, colors, and size I cohnt out loud when I cut paper, when I put the toys away

Brandy

12/31/2018 12:08:52 pm

An early math concept can be an infant who is sorting blocks. Or a toddler who is sorting shapes by color or by different sizes.

lani

1/1/2019 01:32:56 pm

i use math with puzzles, counting objects like turtles,butterflies, bean bags etc and during serving food like counting fruit or veggies.

Brianna Tumacder

Classifying and Sorting is a very simple way to incorporate early math into any classroom. When playing with a basket of toys, children can separate toys by color attribute. Placing all green toys in this pile, while the red ones go in that pile, etc. Once they get the hang of that they can then start separating by size, or even shape!

Michael Garrigan

Foam Dice play. Sorting by color or numbers.

rajini

1/5/2019 07:13:30 pm

in circle time we sing songs example one two buckle my shoes and when we are playing with blocks we count blocks.

Rebecca Barrow

Math can take many forms in a infant/toddler classroom, the one that come strongest to me in the shape sorting game. First the child is introduced to patterns, then colors of the different pieces, the name of the shape, then the number of pieces of each shape or each child has. Block play, counting during group/circle time (we use the calendar), numbers on mats the toddlers sit on.

Chal

Blocks made from different materials and of different sizes and colors. Children will notice the difference in weight, size, and how well they all fit together and will be able to work with and even sort them in ways that make sense to them.

Anita

Block play introduce shapes,color and size in the toddler class.

Raheleh Mehrjoo

We do in our classroom for math activity shapes and patterns almost every day.

Hang Dao

Young children learn concept math when they play with difference sizes of blocks, sort the colors and compare the things around them every day.

Emma

One way we use counting every day in during circle time. We count how many friends we have in class for the day. As well as counting the days on the calendar.
