Yesterday I noticed Khizer and Aisha were

playing with the blocks. At the beginning Khizer

would pass the block to Aisha and she would
take it and put it inside the drawer. She would
then close the drawer and when it made a bang
noise, they would both laugh. They kept doing it
until the drawer was full and they couldnt close
it anymore. Aisha kept trying and was getting
annoyed at why it wasnt closing. Khizer kept
holding a block for Aisha to take but Aishas
attention was now in figuring out why drawer
wasnt closing.
Khizer waited for a second and then started to
put the block back on the shelf. He picked up
another one and put it next to it. He kept doing
this until he had a row of perfectly lined blocks.
He then looked at me and smiling gave a happy
clap for himself.
Today again I noticed him ordering the trains.
He was sitting with assorted colored trains and
was trying to put them all in a straight line. He
was focusing hard so that he could link the
trains well.
Khizer was playing with early mathematical
concept of space and ordering. In the first
incident he was also together with Aisha
learning about the space as well as social skills
such as sharing the space and reciprocal
relationship. As teachers we will continue to
build on Khizers mathematical concepts.
