Left and Right

Pilot mathematicians continue to explore the concepts of Left and Right.

We matched our own hands up with the ones on our paper.

We discussed that our pointer (index) finger and thumb create the letter "L" on our left hand.

Then we labeled the hands on our paper with an "L" and an "R"

We also incorporated pattern into our activity. We painted the nails on each hand in a two pattern. We also discussed the proper names for each of our fingers (pinkie, ring finger, thumb etc.)

Lastly we used one-to-one correspondence as we counted the fingers.

Great Work!
