Play some lively music and have the children move around freely in an open space. When the music stops, the children freeze and listen for you to call out a number “Four!” Then they quickly get into groups of four. If there is a group of less than four, encourage them to figure out how they can “make it four,” by having the teacher join their group or putting a doll or a puppet with their group. Continue playing with other numbers.
