Froggies Lunch

Objective:  Counting numbers 0-5

Materials:  paper plate colored green by the student, plastic bugs, toy frog.

Activities:  This lesson can be as simple as stating a number and having the student select the correlating number of bugs to feed to their frog.  For print/braille association, show the student a card with the print/braille number on it and ask them to read "How Many Bugs does Froggie want?" Students must count out the correlating number of bugs to feed froggie from a pile of bugs.
