Sorting
Ask children to sort the pompoms. What was their sorting rule? Can they sort them another way?

Patterns
Use the pompoms for making patterns.
                   

Estimating
Have children estimate the number of each type and then verify by counting.
                                                        

Math Mat
Children place the correct amount on the trees.
