Families Are All Different

Sung to the tune of “Ten Little Indians”

Are there two, or three, or four
In a family?
Five, or six, or more
In a family?
I’m in a family.
You’re in a family.
Families are all different.

Families large
And families small
And families short
And families tall
They’re not the same
As you recall
Families are all different

Number representation

Number representation is the ability to identify the number that corresponds with a quantity. This is also called number identification or number recognition. For example, it is the ability to identify that the symbol 6 refers to the word “six” and the same quantity.

The arts provide children with a vehicle and organizing framework to express ideas and feelings. Music, movement, drama, and visual arts stimulate children to use words, manipulate tools and media, and solve problems in ways that simultaneously convey meaning and are aesthetically pleasing.
