Kindergarten children having been working with the math vocabulary words "more","fewer", and "as many as". Children have brought home a math sheet with eight dogs on it which can be used to explain these ideas to family members at home. I have encouraged children to use small items such as marshmallows, fruitloops, or some other small object that could be placed next to each dog to demonstrate and explain these math vocabulary concepts. If you have a few spare moments, have your child show and explain to you. This will give you an opportunity to check for your child's understanding. Good Luck!
