Teaching numbers in sequences, it is important to start with concrete examples using blocks or sorting objects. It is easiest to start by showing the growth of a simple activities. As a part of it our EY-1 kids were encouraged to sort by sorting out toys, balls or other similar items into ‘like’ groups, such as big/small, long/short, or colours. Sorting helps children develop EXECUTIVE FUNCTION SKILLS, important brain skills that help with memory, attention and problem-solving.
