Wren's Shape Circles: Count and Keep Track

Wren the bird counts shapes arranged in circles, and kindergartners learn to keep track of where they started. Children pick the picture that doesn't show 10, see that counting triangles down the columns still gives 16, tap to mark 14 squares in a circle, count 19 hexagons from a star, catch Wren counting one triangle twice and skipping one, find the card that makes 10 with 9 and with 4, and count 17 trapezoids in a ring. Fully narrated, with a spoken hint after every wrong answer.

• 11 narrated activities: a which-one-doesn't-belong warm-up, counting in a different order, three circles of shapes, two watch-and-judge counts and two Find the Pair cards
• A counting collection that marks each square as it is tapped, and two where Wren counts and the child says whether she was right
• Spoken hints after every wrong answer

• Count up to 20 shapes arranged in a circle, keeping track of where you started.
• Tell when a count is wrong because a shape was counted twice or skipped.
• Know that counting the same shapes in a different order gives the same number.
• Find the number that goes with 9 or 4 to make 10.
