Preparation
Presentation
Exercise 1:
- The child is given an object label, which he/she/she reads, then gets the object and places the symbols over the words.
 - The same child does the same for a second object.
 - Then the directress gives him/her/her a preposition card to place between.
 - He matches the symbols to the preposition.
 - The child puts the objects in the indicated relationship and copies the words into his journal and adds the symbols.
 - Those cards are removed but the objects remain as the children each place objects in special relationships.
 - Each time the result of this exercise is different.
 - When the children work alone they choose the cards randomly.
 
Exercise 2:
- With the long strips, each child in turn takes one, reads it, executes the command, lays out the symbols and copies it down.
 - Again the objects remain but the labels are removed as the child finishes copying.
