There are many, many ways to teach the concept of size. Being able to accurately compare and order items by size is a typical preschool skill. This is a skill that most children learn easily by simply playing. Many of them naturally line up toys by size even before they know the words "small", "medium", and "large". At SLC we provide opportunities that reinforce the skill in FUN ways. One day we painted with small, medium and large balloons. The children dipped them in paint and pressed them onto paper. Math through art is a powerful learning experience.
