Number Parade


We have been working on our Number Parade!  Work with your child on what a number looks like by counting different things you see while you are driving our just at home.  Practice writing numbers zero through 10 too.  Number 2, 3, 7 and 9 are the numbers some children reverse.  



Here are some rhymes that help us write our numbers:
1 - Start at the top and down you run, that's the way you make a one.
2 - Make a candy cane and give it a shoe, that's the way you make a two.
3 - Around and around just like a "B", that's how you make the number three.
4 - Down and over and down some more, that's how you make a four.
5 - Short neck, belly fat, Mr. Five wears a hat.
6 - Make a "C" then in you go, now you've made a six you know.
7 - Across the sky and down from heaven, that's the way you make a seven.
8 - Make an "S" and then don't wait, go back up and make an eight.
9 - Make a circle then a line, that's the way you make a nine.
