Learning Numerals

My 4-year-old knows the counting order, but that doesn’t mean she can recognize the numerals. This free math video shows an activity that helps her learn the Cuisenaire Rods as well as the numerals that go along with them. You can see that 6-9 are tricky for her still!

Introducing Teen Numbers – Part One

This free math video is of me introducing teen numbers to my 4-year-old. She already knew how to count past 20, but that doesn’t mean she knows what those numbers actually mean or that she understands place value! Cuisenaire Rods help children see the structure in our number system. They are visual and kinesthetic, therefore, information learned while using them is stored more easily in the brain.
