spin the spinner
Follow whichever finger and color it lands on. For example, for “Finger 1 Blue,” place your thumb on blue.
Keep each finger in its place until the spinner indicates otherwise. Get ready for some twisted fingers!
Expansion Idea:
Trade places with your student! Have your kiddo call out the spinner directions, and check to make sure you have in fact placed the correct finger number on the correct color. Have them help you figure out your finger numbers if you don’t get it right.
