learned.

Say seven pencils. Children count out seven pencils.
Continue in this way, saying numbers at random, until you have used all number 1–13.
You can make this into a game by awarding points to the first team to count out the correct number of pencils and
raise their hands when they have finished.

Once children have finished coloring, give out scissors. Mime cutting with your hand and say cut. Children repeat and
then cut around the edges of the template.
Demonstrate folding with a piece of paper. Say fold and ask children to repeat. Show children how to fold in the tabs
around the triangle, and then fold it inwards to make the base of the pencil pot.
Once children have finished folding, pick up a glue stick and mime sticking something with it. Say stick, and ask
children to repeat. Children then stick their pencil pot together.

Mime coloring with your hand to elicit color. Give out the colored pencils. Ask children to color the bird and cage on
the worksheet.
Once children have finished coloring, mime cutting with your hand to elicit cut. Children then cut around the edges of
the two circles.
Once children have finished cutting, demonstrate gluing each circle to either side of a pencil so that the bird is visible
on one side and the cage is visible on the other. When finished it should look like a lollipop.
Using your own spinner, demonstrate how to roll the pencil rapidly back and forth between the palms of your hands
to make the bird appear in the cage.
