Learning About Vegetables and Counting With Corn
At Community Preschool and Childcare, they learned about vegetables and practiced their math skills by counting corn kernels! The students were given print-outs of stalks of corn with numbers on them and then (with assistance from their teacher, were able to count out the correct number of kernels to match the number upon the stalk. It was a fun activity and complemented the worksheets everyone did about other vegetables in general too!
