PRESENTATION: | Presentation 1 - Begin the work cycle.
- Ask the child to lay out a floor mat.
- Show the child how to open the box and remove the Seguin Board A.
- Place the number cards for 1,2 and 3 randomly on the side.
- Point to the 10 on the board and ask the child if he remembers what that number is.
- The child should respond with, “ten” in which case you continue the lesson.
- Show the child how to take the loose one number card and how to slide it into the right hand side of the board covering the 0 so that the number now formed is 11.
- Remind the child that when we add one to the ten (as we did with the beads) we make a new number called eleven. This is how we would write 11. [/DAP]
- Leave the card in place and continue with 12.
- Point to the next number 10 on the board and ask the child if he remembers what that number is.
- The child should respond with, “ten” in which case you continue the lesson.
- Show the child how to take the loose “two” number card and how to slide it into the right hand side of the board covering the 0 so that the number now formed is 12 which is directly below the 11.
- Remind the child that when we added two to the ten (as we did with the beads) we make a new number called twelve. This is how we would write 12.
- Repeat this with 13.
- In the SECOND PERIOD repeatedly ask the child to show you the various amounts 11, 12 and 13.
- In the THIRD PERIOD, try to isolate each amount by covering each top number formed with a small piece of felt. Asking the child (in order) “what number is this?”
- Consolidate by asking the child again to tell you the name of all three numbers.
- The next time you work with this, do one known and two unknown numbers.
- End the work cycle.
