Learning in context

A clock matters because the cake will be ready at a particular time; groups of food give children something to count. These kitchen situations make the language and math tasks concrete, with creative cake-making between them.

Try it together

Set out spoons in a repeating pattern and invite your child to add the next one. Talk about equal parts when sharing a snack.
