I am so excited to share with you some FUN math activities for your primary students.
Over the summer I always love to browse online and find new and exciting activities to incorporate into my classroom. This summer I hit the jackpot while browsing Oriental Trading's Education Page.
They have some amazing things that I can't wait to use in my classroom this year.
First of all, how cute is this graph pocket chart? I am excited to use this as part of our morning routine and morning meeting. My students will come in the classroom and before heading to their seat, they will mark their answer to our "Question of the Day." Then at our morning meeting, we will review the data from chart. I love using graphs daily because it really helps my students understanding comparing.
Another product I fell in love with were these foam number math dice with numerals on them. We will play lots of math games with these dice.
Right now I am teaching "Kindergarten Jumpstart" for two hours a day. School will start fully next week. Today at jumpstart, we used the dice for number recognition and counting. The students rolled the dice and then had to count to that number.
We will also use these dice with counters. The students will roll the dice and have to show that many counters. Everything is more fun dice!
My last goodie I am sharing today are these awesome pocket dice that are completely customizable. I am using them for tally marks here. Instead of having numerals or dots, I used index cards and made tally marks for my students to practice. They roll the dice and then write the numeral for the amount of tally marks they rolled.
I plan on using these dice ALL. THE. TIME. I will be using them literacy centers, math centers, and science centers. I love that I can easily switch out the picture on them without having to store tons of different kinds of dice. It's a teacher's dream!
My students are going to LOVE all these fun math activities. Oriental Trading has made shopping easy for teachers too. I created a wishlist so I can keep track of all the items I still want/need. I am able to share this with my family or even parents who are looking for a way to help purchase items for the classroom. You need to hop on over there, check out all the great goodies and create your own classroom wishlist!
