LET'S PLAY
Interactive activity
In this activity, the child will first watch a video about sorting and comparing sets of items. Then, without counting, they will compare plates of food and feed the group with more to a monster.
Video made possible by Kentucky Educational Television (KET).

Independent practice
At the end of the activity, the child will be asked to make two groups with the materials you gave them.

Have the child tell you which group has more and how they know.
