Motivated by the theme we are working this week at school, the game we chose is relevant to the farmer and the sowing of seed. It's a mathematic game of counting numbers from 1 to 5.

At the first stage the children are drawing farmers and carrots.

Then they cut their drawings and we plasticize them. First we give the kids five farmers and then numbers from 1 to 5 in cards. They place them as they want next to the farmers. They must  put next to every farmer the correct number of carrots.

In the second phase we take the game outside in our yard. We give the kids the farmers and we scatter the numbers around. Then the kids choose a number running around with music and they must gather as many carrots as the number they have.

With the help of our computer we turn the drawings of the children in digital form and play again the game. In the end we print the game, we plasticize it and every child can play with it as many times as it wants.

The aim of our game is the children to identify the numbers from one to five, the matching of quantities and numbers, the enhancement of their creativity and last but not least learning to use the computer.

The children watched the video with the activity of the Kindergarten "Bee" Shumen, Bulgaria and they liked it very much. The games with Bee-Bot  gained their interest and they wanted to learn more. So we visited y-tube and saw pictures and videos. After understanding the way the bee moves, they took the bricks of our class and started doing their own bee-bot simulations. In the end one of my students, Maria painted her own clever bees, which are just as lovable!
