Packaging snacks is an excellent group activity where students can practice many different types of skills at their own level.  Skills that can be taught through this type of activity include: counting and number concepts; sequencing;  concepts of in/out, open/closed, more/less;  positional concepts of left to right, top to bottom; money skills; communication, and social skills. This activity from Manila is a great example of how these functional skills can be taught.
