
Skills Development
 Sort objects according to size –
big/medium/small.
 Classify objects on the basis of two
attributes, such as size&colour, or
type&colour.
 Add similar objects to a clearly defined
set.
 Match pairs of related objects in one to
one correspondence.
 Match equivalent and non-equivalent sets
in one to one correspondence.
 Algebra – introduce simple two colour
patterns.
 Introduce number 1 – writing, analysis,
conservation.
 Number rhymes.
 Length – compare pairs of identical
objects that differ in length, noting the
need for a common baseline. Vocabulary –
long/longer/same length.
 Data – sort and classify sets of objects on
the basis of one criterion such as colour.
