Farm Number Puzzles Counting to 10

(0)
This farm themed activity is a great way for your students to work on their math, number, counting, fine motor and problem solving skills. As well as all these skills, this activity will provide your students with the opportunity to look at photographs of different farm animals The puzzles come in 8 different difficulty levels; • Level 1 - 0-3 • Level 2 - 0-4 • Level 3 - 0-5 • Level 4 - 0-6 • Level 5 - 0-7 • Level 6 - 0-8 • Level 7 - 0-9 • Level 8 - 0-10 There are a range of ways that these can be used in your classroom such as; • Print out the puzzles, cut them up and laminate them. Use them as a center activity where your students have to look at the numbers on the bottom of each puzzle piece, put them into numerical order to make the puzzle. • Print out two copies of each puzzle (one copy can be b/w), laminate one as a full puzzle (I recommend the b/w one) and then cut out the puzzle pieces on the other puzzle. Laminate the puzzle pieces. Have your students match the individual pieces onto the completed puzzle. This provides a lower ability option for students struggling. Instructions are also included on first pages of each PDF document. I would highly recommend laminating each of the individual task cards so that they will be stronger, therefore longer lasting. The farm animals included are; • Ducks • Cows • Chickens • Sheep • Pigs • Chicks • Lambs • Horses • Rooster

Students can either draw and write the criminal’s face and name onto the wanted poster or use the pictures and names we have included to cut and stick onto the wanted poster instead. Your students will love taking part in this fun and interactive crime scene, especially during a busy time of year when it can be hard to keep them engaged. A teachers walkthrough is also included in the pack to help you put together the crime scene and use it to the best of its ability. I would also recommend trying out the crime scene before giving it to your students so that you are able to familiarize yourself with the way that it works. This comes in both spelling options i.e color/colour, favorite/favourite etc. Almost everything that you need to complete this crime scene is included in this pack. However, you will need access to cheese and chocolate for students to taste/smell.

Valentine's Day Ten Frame Task Cards

(0)
These hands-on task cards are a fun and engaging way for your students to work on their number formation, counting and ten frame skills. The task cards included are from numbers 0-10. First, students form the number on the top of the task card. Then, they count out the amount of manipulative or mini erasers to place into the ten frame on the task card. Your students can also use dry-wipe pen for this. The ten frames are all blank on these task cards. Meaning your students use a manipulative or dry wipe pen to fill in the ten frames for the same number that is shown on the task card. I recommend cutting out and laminating each of the individual task cards so that they will be stronger and longer-lasting. The task cards come in both col. and b/w option for your printing preference. Instructions are included on the first page of PDF file. 2 task cards come on each page to minimise your printing.
