Teaching Numbers

It's important to do a various activies when you are teaching your children numbers in French. It's very easy for them to count from 1 to 10 in French, but can they count backwards? Can they randomly say which number is which without counting up first? Look for ways to throughout the day to practice numbers. Here are a few ideas that I've used in the past with my kids and students.

When walking down stairs you can count backwards in French with each step you take with your child.

Play with a rocket and count down in French to take off.

Play with chalk on your driveway and draw various numbers and have them say the numbers in French.
