K1 in Liberia: counting and feelings at 4
K1 comes after nursery, or ABC, in Liberia, for children of about 4. Here are short counting and feelings games for home.
Getting started
A five-minute game for today
Put five bottle caps in a line. Your child counts them, touching each one. Then you take two away and they count again.
Together 01
After nursery
K1 builds on nursery: children count small groups, learn songs with numbers and letters, and get used to a teacher’s instructions.
Together 02
How many puppies?
In Numbers, the voice asks “How many puppies do you see?” and your child taps the number. If they guess, count the puppies together slowly.
Together 03
Naming feelings
In Feelings, your child taps the sad or the happy face. Ask them when they felt like that today; it helps them talk about their day.
Together 04
Every day a little
Short turns on most days are better than a long session once a week. Short, regular practice is what children remember.
