Finger Math – Show me Five!
This is for two or more players. Have a parent or older sibling call out “show me 5” and then the child holds up 5 fingers. Keep going using all the numbers up to 10.
You can also ask for “another way”. When your child holds up 5 fingers on one hand for “show me 5” you can ask ”show me another way to make 5” and he can hold up 3 on one hand and 2 on the other, or 4 and 1.

PRACTICE SAYING PLEASE AND THANK YOU!
Who can you say “thank you” to this week?
When you ask for something, do you remember to say “please?”
Showing kindness with our words is very important.
Draw a picture of yourself and who you said thank you to? How do you feel in the picture? How does the other person feel?
