Tara's Tiny Tots

NEW SLIDES ADDED!! Enjoy 6 activities that will have kiddos sequencing to five, ten and twenty!!! Work on forward and backward number counting, and even challenge your students by having them place numbers in descending order. You can make this even more challenging by changing the numbers. (Right click and ungroup the pictures to change the numbers to include teen numbers, or any number combinations, but be sure to re-group once you are finished.)

There are 10 posters from 1-10 that show students different ways to make the number. It will help them to determine which is more and less, along with spellings, fingers signs, ten frames and dice dots. This will help students to really know more about each number. In my classroom, I introduce each number at the beginning of the year and add them to my number wall as I do.

Students will take turns guessing which tree Santa is under. If they guess the right one, they are the winner. I then have the winner pick the new number to hide Santa. You can change the numbers to make it harder or easier based on the needs of your classroom.

This activity is a number recognition game. A student will guess which apple the worm is under and move the corresponding apple. If the worm is under, they are the winner. If not, they move it to the basket and it is another student's turn. You can change the numbers to make it fit with the needs of your students.

Use these posters to introduce numbers and/or hang in your classroom. Each poster has different ways to show the number to help your students understand what that number really means.
