Detailed Lesson Plan
1.Food Intro
Introduce that different types of food in our daily life may have different shapes, and sometimes we can identify a food by its shape.

6.Each child is entitled to one roll per round.
7.When the road in front of MatataBot does not have the corresponding shape of food, place the MatataBot on another starting point and make it face towards the target food;
8.Children plan the route that allows MatataBot to move to the target food.
9.Children need to complete 吸咬奶头狂揉60分钟视频 in one go. If MatataBot successfully move to the target food, remove the food card and place it on the corresponding shape module;
10.If not, children is not allowed to redo the 吸咬奶头狂揉60分钟视频 this round.
11.If the shape on the dice rolled by a child has already been removed, he or she will not be able to continue the attempt during this round. It is the next child’s turn.
