During our pretend play, lots of different scenarios came up, of course. Pictured below:The strong wind blew through the neighborhood (showing the wind with hands while picking up a couple of numbers, or mixing them up). Oh, no! What happened? The mail carrier will not be able to deliver mail! Can we fix it?
We set up a little post office at the end of the drive way. Supplies used: paper and a pencil, toys to be delivered, a truck designed to carry a driver, a package, and a piece of paper.
Math challenges: writing down numbers, counting up and down the number line when delivering mail.
