How do I know what my child is learning(Assessment)
Use terms and gestures to reinforce directional terms, such as pointing up, while saying, “The ball went up in the air.”

How can you extend this activity? (Modifications)

If you do not have paper plates use paper in a circle. I have seen using a balloon and tying string to a square.

Helpful Hints: (Pitfalls & Solutions)
The pitfall I had was gluing string, the solution was I used popsicle sticks.
