The Number Tree – Jade
The children of grade 1 have enjoyed the story ´The Number Tree´, where a lonely tree flourishes into a happy tree surrounded by plants and animals. This story is a wonderful medium to explore the value of number from 1 to 10 and has given the children the opportunity to compare amounts and understand first addition tasks and number sequencing. The colourful visual aids gave a tangible contextual basis for further exploration and recording.
