This activity could be done with a penny and a dime and the dime always means tens and the penny ones.
-
Low level students can just craft numbers, on level students can order the numbers, high level students can also try reversing all their numbers and then reordering them or add their numbers.
-

This would be a great activity to cross with a science unit. It might work better in groups because of the number of objects to manage and carry around.
-
Additionally making groups in a mindful way would allow for accommodation for children with exceptional needs.

-
Use comparative words (bigger, smaller, etc.) to complete a treasure hunt in a natural setting.

when doing this lesson make sure you explain vocabulary for ELL students, for example explain what blueprints are and what an architect is...etc.

ok, this particular one is to be done on the computer. However, you could easily make this a project the whole class can do by giving them graph paper, rulers, and certain measurements they have to keep thier apartment in. LOVE this idea!

review basic shape terms that will be especially useful in math later on, when kids move to studying three dimensional shapes and early geometry. Great for Kinesthetic learners
-
Children use this Twister game as a way to learn their shapes. The children design the game board by drawing several different shapes. A spinner is made, and directions are given to the children playing. Each child puts their hand or foot on the space designated to them by the directions.

Activity: Blubber GloveThis teacher assisted activity will help the children to understand how the layer of blubber keeps the polar bear warm. I got this idea from the (Editors of Publications International, Ltd). These are the items you will need: Crisco, 1 cup 2 large zip-lock bags Bucket for ice and water Fill the bowl with ice and water. With one bag filled with the shortening, the child places his hand in the other zip-lock bag, used as a glove. He then slides it into the bag of "blubber". Seal the edges on each side as close to the child's hand as possible. Help the child to swish the shortening evenly around his hand, then dip it into the bucket of ice water. As the child tests the ice water with the other hand, ask to compare how it felt with and without the "blubber glove". Make a chart to record the student's observations, with and without the "blubber". Explain that the polar bear has up to 4 inches of blubber that insulates his body to keep him warm.

We have a Dr. Seuss unit at Lowell. The first graders have a parade with homemade floats and everything! This would be a cute Kindergarten math activity for counting or adding during Seuss time.
