After awhile, my boy wrote math publish sentences for me to figure out too create total in. We had fun working together.
Meanwhile, my toddler did her ain window math Gruffalo activities.
First I wrote a publish on each Gruffalo.
Then I said a publish out loud. First she had to role her spray bottle to spray the right publish (that I said) too and thus she had to erase it using her towel.
Later on she also tried drawing her ain numbers on the 3 Gruffalo too... too and thus erasing them too writing them again.
This activity was simple, involved H2O too drawing on the window, too allow my immature adult woman larn a piffling messy/wet... thus of course of teaching she was a large fan :)
