PWA Tags Numbers/ Words
PWA Try this Take turns counting to a set number, such as ten: you say "one", then {LEARNER_FNAME} says "two", and so on.   Once {SUBJ_PRONOUN} is comfortable at counting back and forth, add a challenge. Write a “secret” number on a piece of paper, for example, "3", and ask {LEARNER_FNAME} to whisper it in your ear to make sure {SUBJ_PRONOUN} knows it.   Say: Yes, that’s the secret number – but don’t say it out loud. We’ll try counting again but if it’s your turn to say the secret number, just say "Shh!" Like this: one, two, (shh!), four, five.  Take turns going back and forth, saying "Shh" each time the secret number comes up. After six rounds, switch the secret number.  Make it more challenging by adding a second number to remember (for example, don’t say three or seven).
PWA Variations
PWA What to look It may be difficult initially for {LEARNER_FNAME} to avoid counting all the numbers aloud; after all, that is also an important achievement. However, in this case try to observe whether {SUBJ_PRONOUN} improves when it comes to holding back the secret number. Pausing can also be a good sign that {SUBJ_PRONOUN} is exercising this important skill.
PWA Why this matters Learning numbers often leads to reciting them in ascending order, which, after lots of repetition, becomes second nature. By choosing certain numbers to skip, {LEARNER_FNAME} will need to use self control to avoid saying them in the sequence rather than reciting a rehearsed list. UTM-EM-049-MAR-21
