increase the understanding of vowels, counting, listening, and  following
directions                                                                                         
Procedure:                                                                                                                       1.  
The children stand in a circle.                                                                                   
2.  
The teacher calls out a vowel like an “A”.                                                               
3.  
All the children with an “A” in their name move into the circle.                             
4.  
The rest of the children on the outside of the circle count the children
with an             “A” in their name.                                                                                                   
5.  
The children return to the circle and another vowel is said like “E.                         
6.  
This game can continue by having just boys go into the circle with an
“A” in             their name or the girls with an “O.”                                                                         
7.  
Be creative and think of other ways such as if you have an “A” and “O”
in                your name or use both first and last names to see how many “E’s” in the
name.
