Making Abstract Learning Visible
Designed for Early Childhood classrooms. Supported by professional learning.
Extended into family life.
The Countdown Calendar 4Kids gives young children a concrete, sensory way to experience time, routines and transitions, while creating opportunities for mathematical thinking, early literacy and further sensory exploration.
It Begins With Time
See. Touch. Connect. Count. Learn.
The Countdown Calendar 4Kids gives children a concrete, sensory way to experience routines, transitions and the passing of time through meaningful daily experiences.
Designed for Classroom Life
Learning begins with the moments already happening in the classroom.
From morning meetings and daily routines to transitions, inquiries and anticipated events, the Countdown Calendar 4Kids becomes part of the rhythm of classroom life. Children experience time changing, count and compare what remains, talk about what comes next and deepen their understanding of time through everyday classroom experiences.
Daily Routines
Making the passing of time visible through familiar classroom experiences.
Transitions
Helping children anticipate what comes next and prepare for change.
Shared Learning
Creating opportunities to count, compare, predict, communicate and think together.
Children's Independence
Building familiarity with routines as children participate and take increasing ownership.
One Resource.
Growing Possibilities.
Designed to make time visible, the Countdown Calendar 4Kids grows beyond routines. The same sensory materials become flexible learning tools for mathematical thinking, early literacy and further exploration.
