Tips for the Book of 1
Aim: To develop the concept of ‘oneness’
This is another book in the series I have shared on Paths to Literacy previously about developing the oneness of one and the twoness of two. (See “Tom makes one pizza,” and “Two children go to the beach” – within the literacy and numeracy resource about Buckets)
A book to make alongside the child after they have had the real experience.
Developing the oneness of one based on the child’s real experience.
Make up your own stories with the child to develop the oneness of one, the twoness of two etc.
