(e.g. Learning the terms "big" and "small" using the biggest and smallest cubes of the Pink Tower)

Period 1 – Naming

"This is"

Always isolate in the first period.

"This is big, big, big" .... Move out of the way and replace with small cube.

"This is small, small, small." .... It is good to repeat names a few times in different intonation and often worth asking the child to repeat it.

With sandpaper numbers and letters ask the child to trace and say in the first period.

"Show me"

Place both cubes together

Start with the last object named.

(This only applies to Sensorial and Language)
Math must be taught in sequence.

Ask the child to show you the small cube. Repeat several times,
e.g. "Point to small, Where is large, lift and handle small."

Period 3 – Recall

Isolate the object, starting with the last object shown

Ask the child to name the object.

"What is this?"....point to object.
