Here is a fun way to reinforce doubles facts (i.e. 2 + 2 = 4, 3 + 3 = 6, etc.). Play in partners. Use a paperclip and a pencil to create the spinner. On the first player's turn, player 1 will spin. They will say the doubles fact for the number they land on. For example, if player 1 lands on 3, they will say "3 + 3 = 6" and they can color in the 3 on the player 1 track. Play continues the same with player 2. Whoever fills in all of the numbers first, is the winner!
