Need to practice working memory skills? Print out two copies and cut each copy into 12 sections. The leader creates one robot with a head, body and legs. Show the robot to the child. Cover the robot up. The child has to find and create the exact same robot without looking at the leader’s robot again. Want to increase the challenge? Show the leader’s robot to the child, then have the child complete a task ie tie your shoes, run and find 3 red objects, etc. After the task is complete, can the child create the leader’s robot without looking at the model robot again?
