Student Instructions

1. Click on the add button to begin. 2. Choose a shape and say it's name and color. 3. Use the eraser tool to erase the shape. (The outline will stay there.) 4. Use the mic or tell a grownup how many friends you found and what they are doing together. 5. Choose another shape and repeat until you've done them all. Simplify: * Just let it be a shape and/or color activity (steps 1-3). * Count the friends in each set WITH your child. Say each number first if necessary. * If your child is nonverbal, have them point to a shape and/or color that you name and do steps 1-3. Extend: * Have your child use a drawing tool to write the number of children on each set. * After uncovering all the friends doing something fun, have your child tell about the activity they would most like to do and who they'd like to do it with. * When they're all done, have them color the shapes back in.
