Early maths concepts
In this exercise, we will associate concepts with ordinals. The child actively uses the concepts as instructed.

So far, we have dealt with numbers, but it is also important to be aware of the order of numbers. Understanding the linguistic relationships before, after, just before, just before, just after, just after the first, etc., which the children practised in Ex. 113 Do you understand the concepts? In this way, children make connections between number ideas and number relationships that are challenging for language comprehension.

Generally belongs in preschool or early school play. Some children solve the task intuitively and naturally, some children need to go through the tasks purposefully. Some children find this task difficult.
Methodological recommendations
Either read aloud the instructions to the child, play them from the app or let the child read them by themselves.
In the settings, we choose the length of the row. This adjusts the difficulty. The pictures are loaded from left to right, so the first picture is always on the left. If the child fails, we have to check if the relational concepts are understood before, after, just before, just after, just after the first, and so on. We check to see if he or she has mastered the number series and understands the numbers - see previous exercises in this section.
