This kinesthetic activity helps them associate the number with the physical movement, reinforcing their understanding. Make sure to demonstrate the action first and count along with the students, providing encouragement and correcting gently if needed. For variation, you can use different animals or actions, like six claps or six steps, to keep the activity fresh and engaging.

Start by asking the class what number comes after six to engage them. Then, use real crayons to visually demonstrate counting up to seven, which helps in number recognition and counting skills. For a kinesthetic learning activity, have the students draw stars in the air with their fingers. This not only reinforces the concept of the number seven but also helps in developing fine motor skills. Encourage the students to participate and count aloud together to create a fun learning environment.

It’s a hands-on activity where children will engage in stacking up blocks while counting aloud from one to ten, which helps in number recognition and counting skills. The physical activity of knocking down the blocks adds an element of fun and reinforces the number word ‘ten’ as they say it out loud. Teachers should encourage participation from all students and assist them in counting if needed. The activity can be repeated to ensure that the children are comfortable with the number ten.
