SWF file so open with Internet Explorer or other browsers. Numbers, ordering, sequencing, game for PC, rotation activity Children complete challenges in order, sequencing 6 numbers. 1-6 3-8 7-12 10-15 12-17 15-20 Children have a time limit and can progress through 6 simple stages to completion.

Slides have (1-10) Beans or Eggs on one side the children are asked to count them then predict how many Plants or Chicks will appear. They are then asked to decide if this is more or less.
