Numbers and Counting 

Pirate Pop Game

I found this game online and thought my students would really like it. I made it more educational by writing numbers on the swords and adding a spinner. Students spin the paper clip and find a sword that has that number on it. Then they push it in the pirate's barrell. One of the swords will make the pirate pop up, but you never know which one because it changes every time. 

Sensory Numbers

  • Sand Numbers - Students write numbers in the sand​

  • Gel Numbers - Ziploc bag, gel, food coloring, and glitter. Press flat. Students write numbers on top of the bag. See an example here.

  • Playdough Letters - Students make numbers out of playdough. 

Jump Rope Links

I have math links in my classroom, and I wanted to find a fun way for the kids to use them. I created this jump rope activity where the students have to count out the number of links on the girl's shirt, and use that to make her jump rope. A good fine motor and counting activity.
