The goal for my morning tubs is to create activities that use common classroom manipulatives and items. In this set students work with colored or natural wood popsicle sticks. They are low - prep; just print the task cards and scoreboard you are ready to go.
This set contains 7 different activities to be used with popsicle sticks - colored or natural and 4 digital activities. There are detailed teacher instructions for each center.
❤️Pattern Puzzlers: 14 cards

❤️Duplicate My Design: 12 cards
- Provide students with a collection of colored and plain popsicle sticks so they can duplicate the design on each of the challenge cards.
❤️Popsicle Stick Puzzles: 17 cards
- Copy each popsicle stick puzzle and either glue or use double sided tape to fasten it to the popsicle sticks. As students assemble each puzzle they create a picture that makes it self checking. Skills covered: counting backwards, skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s and repeating patterns.
❤️Make It!: 18 cards

❤️Skill Building Sticks: 14 cards

These are self checking with a pattern or picture that is created when every stick in the proper order. Skills covered: Addition, Subtraction, Base 10, Counting coins - US/Canadian/Australian options
❤️Drop and Count
- Students will drop all 10 sticks and sort into a group of 10’s and a group of 1’s and count the sticks by tens and then ones to get a total number. Each player records their score on the scoreboard and circles the highest score after each round. The player with the most wins after 5 rounds is the winner.
