Nice method. The trick with children that age is to take what they do know, in this case counting blocks in a square, and take it just one step further. My wife used to teach kindergarten. The first grade teacher came up to her at the star

I firmly agree with you that classroom lectures are garbage. We homeschool our children. I'm simply making the point that, at least among younger children, age based classes are preferable to skill-based classes. A preferable alternative
