Miss Arlene's Math Adventures: Counting to 100 (Smart Kids by American Mensa(r))

Join Miss Arlene, math expert, founder of the viral @silentmath on TikTok, and member of American Mensa, on a magical journey through the forest in Counting to 100. 

As she explores the lush, green forest, Miss Arlene encounters all sorts of wildlife and plants—from chirping birds and busy squirrels to blooming flowers and towering trees. Along the way, she teaches young readers to count from 1 to 100, making numbers come alive with each discovery. This charming adventure not only introduces children to the wonders of nature, but also turns counting into a fun and engaging experience. Perfect for little explorers eager to learn their numbers while enjoying the beauty of the great outdoors!

Teaching Methods:
Parents, here are five teaching methods from the book you can use at home to help your child learn to count.

1. Count with Everyday Activities: Integrate counting into daily routines, such as counting the number of toys being put away during clean-up time, the number of grapes in a bowl, or the steps from the kitchen to the living room.
2. Use of a Counting Jar: Fill a jar with small items like coins or buttons and have your child count them one-by-one as they take them out or put them in. You may do this gradually until they reach 100.
3. Review the Numbers Page in this Book: Count numbers 1 to 100 on the numbers page! I even included the spelling of each number so your child can learn that, too. For an added challenge, have your child count by 2's, 5's, 10's, and 20's to reach to 100!
