I created these activity cards to help my students remember what to do in their centers. These centers all focus on practicing addition and subtraction.

I like more open-ended activities where students can repeat the same task in different ways without getting bored, instead of rushing through a set task or worksheet. I've tried to reflect that in these activities. After students have completed the task several times (or when the math center time is up), I normally like them to record the equations they've made on a recording sheet. I have free recording sheets for that purpose available in my store.

I use Kathy Richardson's Developing Number Concepts curriculum and these centers complement that curriculum well. If you want further instruction on using some of the ideas mentioned in this product, I highly recommend her curriculum.
