Your blocks at 2:03 inspired me to get Lego out and this worked a treat with my 5 year old. It made a real breakthrough as we had been using number lines with a lot of frustration.

Hi Susan! Just wondering, could you possibly do a video on how you taught Symmetry to Kindergarten learners! Much love!

Great video and explanation. I’ve used your information to teach my children to read. Always my first source of guidance when I’m looking to teach my young twins.

Thank you for the video! With covid I last minute decided to homeschool my kids and my one son is in kindergarten. He is delayed and I really want to help him learn these concepts well. I'll check out the links you posted.

Thank you Susan, this was really helpful. With a child that has gdd and home learning as we deal with covid, I struggled with the hands-on teaching. This has answered a lot of questions on technique.
