Tuesday poem: The Counting Path
The quiet path gives all we need.
Step by step and two by two,
The wide green world is teaching you.
- Set the room: place counting stones, shoes, and nature basket near the table.
- Breakfast: serve eggs, toast, berries, and milk. Count berries or toast corners before eating.
- Circle: say One, Two, Buckle My Shoe; count shoes, steps, and stones.
- Story: read The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Build the bridge with blocks.
- Reading: N words: nest, nut, nature, number.
- Math: count by 2s with shoes, make ten with stones, measure a stick.
- Copywork: I can notice what is true.
- Making: build a bridge with blocks, carry the nature basket, or arrange the counting stones.
- Outside: find three textures: rough, smooth, soft, then run the bridge story.
- Evening: draw one thing found outside.
