What will be an ideal response?


ANSWER: 1. Play number-oriented board games that involve counting pieces along a number line, like Chutes and Ladders.
1. Use math talk with young children (such as “You can have three crackers” or “Count how many cups we need for snack”) and use math-related vocabulary often.
2. Directly teach math; use effective curricula that involves asking children to explain their strategies (e.g., “How did you know?”) and spacing practice over time.
