The pages are presented in black and white. This allows the teacher to give
specific coloring directions to the children to promote an understanding of the
readiness and numbers instructions.

Sets of pictures provide the reading readiness activities and faciliate the
understanding of the numbers. Small muscle development is promoted through
tracing picture outlines with a crayon or pencil. The children will identify similarities
and differences, use the numbers from 1 to 10 and sing the Ten Little Fingers action
song to the tune of Ten Little Indians.

Finally the children sing a song about Charlie Leong’s train. This is sung to the tune
of Old McDonald Had a Farm. They count the train cars, the animals, and learn to
notice details by identifying pictures that are the same or different.
These lessons integrate action, listening and song.
