| Summary |
Flynn fancies himself as a magician. Dodly becomes his assistant and together they make muffins disappear and real guinea pigs appear. Other segments include animated peas being eaten one by one and a game of real life bowls. In exploring subtraction the program explores: the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction; and linking subtraction to the counting sequence.Through two puppet monsters, Dodly and Flynn, animations, songs and rhymes, Count Us In takes young viewers through a lively and fun exploration of mathematics topics. Areas covered follow mathematic curriculum content strands investigating pattern, number, measurement and chance and data.In each program the content develops from the use of concrete representation of numbers to exploring problems where there is less reliance on such representation. There is also a strong emphasis on mathematical language and on encouraging estimation and self-correction |
