While Little Bear and I were cleaning, we came across some loose money. Little Bear ran to get her piggy bank, however I stopped her before she could put all her change in it. I figured it was time for an impronto lesson! First I told her what each coin was, which did not seem to sink in. So then I had her separate the coins into piles; small, medium, and large.
After she separated it, the fun really began. Little Bear put all the coins into patterns. Dime, nickel, penny, dime, nickel, penny, etc.
Little Bear LOVES patterns. The more complicated the better! After patterns I asked her to make letters. She had a little trouble with that, but eventually she figured it out.
She had some problems with the letter "d". I think it was because she was doing it upside down, so she thought it was a "p". All in all, this impronto lesson was a total success! We worked on patterns, numbers, and money values.
