TEACHING TIPS
- Encourage creativity while drawing objects, allowing students to personalize their scenes and increase engagement.
- Use real-life examples of counting objects to help students make connections between the lesson and their daily lives.
- Break down the counting process into smaller steps for students who are struggling, and provide additional support through repetition.
STUDENT MISCONCEPTIONS
- Some students may think they can only draw specific objects for their scenes. Clarify that they can use their creativity and choose various objects.
- Students may confuse the order of numbers when counting. Reinforce correct number order and practice counting together as a class.
- Students may believe they need to draw objects in a straight line. Encourage them to place objects in various locations within their scenes to create more realistic and engaging illustrations.
