New Math Centers

It is getting close to the Christmas season. I am ALL about keeping my little ones busy, engaged AND working on skills we need to practice. So, these math centers will be put to lots of use the next few weeks.

This unit includes 12 math centers and the recording sheets or follow up sheets are also included. They are EASY to prep! I laminated and cut while I watched a movie one night. And, the skills are all perfect for my first graders this time of the year.

 

The skills covered are: counting by 2’s, counting by 10’s, counting by 5’s, tally marks, number words, least and greatest, addition, subtraction, telling time to the hour, even and odd, and before and after missing numbers.

The counting cards and the sorting cards can all fit perfect in a pocket chart. I don’t always use a pocket chart but I made them to fit. We use them on a table or floor too.

If you are interested in reading/seeing more or in purchasing you can find this in my Teachers Pay Teachers Store.

Winter Pocket Chart Activities

I am a HUGE pocket chart lover! We use them daily in my classroom. These new Winter Pocket Chart Activities will fit in perfect when we go back to school next week.

I like to do these as “exit activities” when we leave our mat time each morning. I have a pocket chart attached to my easel and they each get a card {or two} and have to put it in the correct place before they go back to their desk area.

I also use these as early finisher activities after morning work or after small groups. I keep them stored in plastic boxes and they just grab an empty pocket chart or floor space to do them.

The sorting cards also work really great in small buckets that you can grab at Dollar Tree. And, these can literally be set up anywhere.. desk, table, or floor!

There are 10 different sets of cards included in this pack. Here is a better look at each set activity.

And… I know some teachers like to save on ink so I included black line versions of all 10 sets that you can print on colored paper to save ink.

Halloween Pocket Chart Math Acitivites

I am a HUGE HUGE fan of pocket charts and we use them multiple times through out the day.

We use them in small groups and during center rotations. 

But, I also use them as early finisher activities. 

And, I have TONS of different activities but I seriously can always use more. 

So, I made this little pocket chart unit to use for the month of October. 

There are 8 different activities to use in this unit. 

Here is a look...

Number Words- zero-twenty match. These can also be used at a table or on the floor. I frequently run out of pocket charts (even with 4 permanent ones and 2 tabletops ones) so these are easily used anywhere!

Counting by 5's: Numbers 5-300 are included. I don't plan to have all my students count to 300. Just pick and use what numbers best fit your students.

Ten Frame Counting: We are working so hard on counting tens & ones. 

These will be a perfect fit for the next few weeks.

Even and Odd Sorting: These fit great in a pocket chart but can easily be used in baskets too. One of the reasons I love a pocket chart is how easily I can do a quick glance to check the students work. But, just like I mentioned above.. sometimes space is limited so I use these little buckets/baskets from the dollar tree with the header cards taped to the front.

Addition Math Facts: We seriously practice math facts in some sort each day. Why not make it hands on and a more engaging than a fact sheet. These little witch cards are so cute!

Counting by 10's. Numbers 10-300 are included. You might only want to use numbers up to 100 or 120 .. or 200. Pick and choose what works best for you classroom.

Ordering Numbers: It seems like I am always pulling out some counting cards and just randomly pick some for my students to order from least to greatest. These little silly monsters will be a hit for sure!

Greater or Less Than Sort: These can also be used in a pocket chart or those same little Dollar Tree buckets I mentioned with the even and odd cards. 

I often get request for me to make some of my items in black and white. I know not everyone wants to print in color {or has that option} so I included black and white versions of all the cards so you can have your choice.
