15. Embedding the language
You can use numbers to count things throughout your lessons. Quant’e` la sfida! Every time the teacher calls, “quant’e`?” the pupils have to count whatever they have in front of them and then say it in Italian. Using numbers and counting as a way of settling a class, putting a time limit on tidying etc.
I have explored numbers, understanding that they represent quantities, and I can
use them to count, create sequences and describe order.

17. (Finger) puppets for counting
Using a Italian puppet and asking pupils to teach him how to count in English and then the puppet can teach them how to count in Italian, helps pupils to differentiate between the two and can help enhance their developing numeracy skills in English.
I have explored numbers, understanding that they represent quantities, and I can
use them to count, create sequences and describe order.

18. Conta, Conta! All pupils sit in a circle with 10 toys in the centre.
They then close their eyes and say the numbers from 1 – 10.
Whilst they are counting, another pupil (or the teacher) removes a number of toys from the middle.
When they get to 10 they open their eyes and have to say how many toys are in the centre (by asking “Quanti sono?”)
You could let whoever guessed it right take them away/hide them afterwards.
Conta conta means count count
