Let’s hear it for
block play! Blocks provide
children with a meaningful hands-on way to develop math concepts, motor skills,
eye-hand coordination, social skills, independence, and their
imaginations. Check out my June
monthly activity and you’ll discover some new ideas for reinforcing Common Core
State Standards with blocks.
K.J. and Kalina always get out the blocks when they come to visit.
Use blocks for matching upper and lowercase letters, pictures and beginning
sounds, or making CVC words.
Use blocks
for inequalities, addition, subtraction, measurement, sequencing, and logographic reading.
