Math File Folder Game

Math

I simply took some scrap paper wrote 'Math' on it and taped it on the folder. This is how I titled all of the folders.

Inside the folder on the left I wrote the different activities there are for the folder.
Example:

Domino Math
Addition
Substraction
Equation Building

For some reason this one was the hardest for me to come up with.

The activities for this one are more interactive for younger children. They may need help from an adult to start off.

Domino math I found the printable in the picture below (I do not recall where) and made my own domino's to fit out of card stock. I didn't want to buy a whole set of domino's. For this activity you pick a domino and place it on the picture. You write the number of dots on the left side in the place provided below it and the same on the write. In the = space you write the total number of dots.

This can be done with both addition and subtraction.

I have 2 of the tree worksheets. On the bottom right of the tree there is a box to write a number then you place that number of animals in the tree. Because there are two you can add/ subtract the two trees.

The trees do not have equations on them and allows for practice writing out equations.

Painting With Squirt Guns

We did this as a Fathers Day project, but it fits in outside play perfectly. I liked this for Fathers because it was an interactive activity for the kids to do with Jerry to celebrate him and the time they enjoy spending with him. I filled 1 gun with yellow paint and 2 guns with black paint. The squirt guns we used were from the dollar store and had a decently big hole to pour the paint into. Some squirt guns have itty bitty holes that make squirting paint into the gun very difficult. Taped off the canvas...and made the kids pose Then the guns were handed to the kids and dad. Instructions were to shoot the canvas not each other. Very simple. Start squirting! The squirting went on and on. I refilled the guns a couple times so the activity could continue. Jerry also took time with each Dragon to squirt with them. With a Star Wars theme we were looking at having black as the primary color and yellow as the secondar

Elephant Faces

Elephant Faces (masks) We used: Three paper plates Paint or markers Paint brushes Stapler Scissors Yarn First paint the bottom of the paper plate. While the kids painted I cut the other paper plate in half for the ears. Using the third plate I cut out the textured part of the plate to make the trunks. Paint (or color) the rest of the pieces. Staple them together to make an elephant. Cut out small holes for eyes and small holes behind the ears to attach the yarn. Now that the lesson is over I have the masks hanging in the playroom. They make a neat decoration.

Teeth Craft

This craft went with our meat eater unit you can see here I was having a difficult time thinking of activities for meat eaters. I didn't want the sole focus to be on dinosaurs because carnivores and herbivores is a way to categorize many animals today. But everything I was running into was dinosaur related. Finally I found this craft! Materials: paper template of a carnivore and herbivore (I drew a hippo and t-rex head outline) page of teeth scissors glue markers Little Dragon cut out the heads and then the mouth pieces. Then he cut out the teeth and glued them inside the mouth To finish it he drew eyes on the head and a tongue on the inside of the mouth. Little Dragon was very excited to see the finished animals and open their mouths to look at their teeth. We wrote what the animal was on the inside This was a fun easy craft that helps identify the difference in the teeth between carnivore an
