Number Sense Math Center for October or Fall (11 to 20)

Do your students struggle with number sense? The regular pattern sorts will help them learn to subitize using different math tools, while the random pattern sorts will help them become flexible with composing and decomposing numbers in different ways. Choose 2 or 3 numbers at a time for your students to sort. They make a great independent math center! I also have monthly sorts for adding and subtracting numbers, which you can find here!

Experience

I LOVE teaching first graders! They love to learn and have fun, and their progress from September to June is HUGE! It always amazes me how far they come!

Teaching style

I believe in the value of kids talking and working through problems together. I love Common Core's focus on showing perseverance in solving problems and also on explaining the thinking behind a solution. I think that kids are the most engaged when they are "doing", so there's a lot of hands-on practice in my room. Looking for quality hands-on activities was actually how I discovered TPT, and I am so glad I did!
