did too.

I will end the activity by having the child put the decorated box by the manipulatives
table so others can play with it too.

I will have the children transition to the next activity by using self-help skills of cleaning
up and we will walk together back to the group.

Developmental Variations: What modifications will you make for an


individual(s) or group(s)?

I would have bigger sticks for the children that have trouble holding the tiny sticks. I
would also make the different colored slots more apparent.
