Block and color matching

During morning meeting, each friend was given a colored block to match with the corresponding construction paper. Each friend was called on and they would show/ tell the class what color block they had before they matched it with the paper. After everyone had a turn we counted how many blocks each color had. The second time we did the activity, instead of calling each friend up, one at a time, I asked friends to come up when they had the corresponding block to the color I was saying. Everyone did a great job following directions and identifying the color of the block they were given.
