About this title

Synopsis

Ages 4 through 8. Help your students learn basic concepts such as before/after, together/separated, top/bottom, long/short, and left/right as they interact with Harmon Hippo and his friends. This book includes stories, thinking activities, and materials that you can use to promote the development of concepts relating to position, time, number, and size. The activities challenge students to follow and give directions, talk about time order in short stories, use concepts to make simple comparisons, describe steps in a process, and answer questions.
