Sort and Count Camels

Relevent Early Learning Goals

  • Mathematical Development
    • Numbers as labels and for counting
      • 2,3,4,6,8,9
    • Calculating
      • 2,4,5,6,8
    • Shape, space and measures
      • 2,6,7

Method

Using all 48 camels get the child to SORT the camels into coloured groups.
Then sort the groups in to SIZES (large, medium, small)
Now COUNT how many groups you’ve made.
ESTIMATE how many camels there are altogether, then count them as you return them to their box.
