Hi friends.I hope you are ready for a FUN Center Saturday post today.Since Halloween is behind us,
I was almost dreading writing this post thinking
about Halloween all over again.
THEN, when I was preparing my pictures I remembered
I had more Kk activities than Halloween activities.
Check Kk activities in this bundle.
Thank the Lord!
Once I am done with a holiday…
I am DONE with that holiday!
This week we learned about the Letter Kk, which is part of this bundle.
lots of Halloween themed literacty,
and pumpkins.
And remember…
all my centers this year are math.
Purple center was all about matching and sequencing numbers 0-20.
My students had a KITE mat and 20 numbered cards cut up.
They had to match the number cards to the mat and make a new picture.
Working on it…
working on it…
DONE!
It turns into a KEY.
Next week, they will do something similar with new mats,
but I will then trace the numbers, then match the number.
The orange table was a quick worksheet with koala bears
to allow my little ones to compare numbers.
We used the nose of the koala bear to make our symbols.
I have to do some worksheets to send home activities for my parents to “see” our learning.
And it makes it easier to document for SST and EIP.
I don’t have to love it,
but I do try to do one math worksheet a week for these reasons.
Red table was this amazingly perfect fall graph sheet from
I think it is in her Fall Printables pack for Kindergarten.
I own them all so I am guessing.
They are all good though.
Blue table hosted our Koala mats.
There are two versions.
The red covers numbers 1-10 and blue covers 10-20.
My kids love these activities way more than the worksheet.
And so do I!
And our last center was green.
We made candy patterns.
I made candy pieces on colored copy paper.
Then I cut the pieces apart and placed them in one of those cheap veggie trays.
I also gave my class some pattern cards to pull out with ABB, AAB, AABB, and so forth.
I refused to place AB in the pile.
I also told my kids to NOT MAKE AN AB pattern.
I was a happy teacher when I did not get even one AB pattern.
My activities came from the Letter Kk {Print & Play Pack}, which is part of this bundle.
We are doing great building numbers and
comparing them so we are moving on to learn new math skills.
I will still use math centers to review all our skills as well though.
Hope this post inspires you to make math centers a little more fun!
Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful ideas. I really like the engaging centres w/o worksheets. I agree with you pantyhose pesky things.
Oops!! Darn autotext. pantyhose=about those
haha… happens to us all.
