Activities for Learning Math
1 Witches’ Brew
- Materials: Witches’ Brew game mat, monster eyes, skeleton bones, die
- Game mechanics: In this game, players rush to fill their witch’s cauldron first! Take turns rolling the die and quickly recognize the number of dots rolled without counting—it's called subitizing. Cover the matching number on your cauldron with a spooky item. If you don't have that number, don’t do anything. The first player to cover all their cauldron's numbers wins! It's all about speedy recognition and collecting the right spooky items to win the race!
- About the game: The Witches’ Brew develops multiple skills crucial for kids. Subitizing, or recognizing numbers without counting, sharpens their instant number recognition. It boosts numeral recognition as they match numbers on the die to those on their cauldron. Plus, it reinforces turn-taking, fostering patience and social skills. Counting comes into play if instant recognition isn’t possible, encouraging precise counting to progress!
2 Measuring Monsters
- Materials: Measuring Monsters game mat, Measuring Monsters number cards, skeleton bones
- Game mechanics: Use bones to measure how tall each monster is from head to toe by lining them up on the game mat's line. Count the bones to figure out the height and put a number card next to each monster to show how tall they are. Keep using the bones to measure all the monsters, and remember, you might not need all the number cards. Ask fun questions like who's the tallest, shortest, or how many bones tall a monster is, comparing their heights for a cool challenge!
- About the game: The Measuring Monsters game is a neat way for kids to learn measuring skills by using bones to measure the monsters' heights. They'll practice counting the bones to figure out how tall each monster is and match that to number cards. It's a cool way to boost their counting ability while getting better at recognizing numbers. So, they'll learn how to measure, count accurately, and recognize numbers all while having fun with monsters!
3 Monster Eye Math
- Materials: Monster Eye Math game mat, Monster Eye Math number cards, monster eyes
- Game mechanics: In this game, you'll count to give the monster its spooky eyes using a special game mat with ten spots arranged like a picture frame. There are two ways to play! First, you can pick a card and put the right number of monster eyes on the mat's spots, counting as you go. Or, you can close your eyes while someone else puts eyes on the monster, then try to guess how many there are by counting or just seeing the amount quickly. It's a fun way to practice counting and recognizing numbers while making a monster's eyes look spooky!
- About the game: This game is all about learning to count and recognize numbers with a fun monster twist! Kids get the hang of counting while filling a tens frame with monster eyes, practicing how to represent numbers visually. They'll also improve at recognizing numbers by matching the right numeral card to the number of monster eyes. It's a cool way to learn counting, understand tens frames, and get better at knowing numbers by playing with spooky monster eyes!
