PWA Tags Indoor;Preparation;Shapes/ Colors
PWA Try this Cut stars, circles, and squares out of colored paper and lay the shapes out on the floor.   Give {LEARNER_FNAME} a sock to use as a monster puppet (decorate your monster for added fun). Explain to {LEARNER_FNAME} that you are both monsters who love to eat shapes and colors.   Suggest that you eat red things together and on the count of three, gather as many red things as you can in five seconds. Play a couple of rounds, gathering up paper pieces according to color. Next, switch from following a color rule to following a shape rule and suggest a shape to eat. Continue until all of the shapes and colors have been eaten or the monsters are full!
PWA Variations
PWA What to look Pay attention to how {LEARNER_FNAME} handles the change in rules, especially when switching from color rules to shape rules. Does {SUBJ_PRONOUN} always follow the correct rule?
PWA Why this matters Cognitive flexibility is used when we switch attention from one idea to another, and early practice with some structured rules can help to hone this skill. These early exercises will help {LEARNER_FNAME} adapt as {SUBJ_PRONOUN} encounters more complex challenges, such as organizing ideas into categories. Working on the ability to adjust early on may help {LEARNER_FNAME} be more comfortable with change as {SUBJ_PRONOUN} grows. UTM-EM-042-MAR-21
