They are able to count up and back by sliding the animal to add or subtract.\r\n\r\nThe word memory matching cards are fun. They are leveled for Kindergarten, 1st grade, and second grade. I'm able to use them based on the reading levels of my students. The students enjoy finding and reading the matching word cards.

I have to say their favorite item is the little stuffed animal assortment. We added them to our treasure box. Each student gets to adopt one at the end of the week if they were in attendance during all of our group time. They love these little stuffed animals. Thank you again!
