![]() ![]() If your child is a little older and is ready for it, use the alligators to compare: ![]() This was quite challenging for her, so after a few more problems I let her get back to her reading. ![]() ![]() Then I made it even tougher with the above example. With an accompanying illustration, she was able to see that those are equal. When I saw that she knew that “2,465 is greater than 2,456”, I created more challenging problems involving fractions. I started with some larger numbers to give her practice with place value. These simple on the floor activities were far too easy for my Seven, who is going into second grade. After figuring out the answer, I had him read it using the words on the alligator. I got out my color tiles from my teaching days. We used a few toys with my Five too, but it became obvious that to help him work with larger numbers we’d need small manipulatives. I would set out small piles and ask my Four to tell me which was larger without counting. He understood that when the piles had equal amounts, he needed to choose the equal sign. If your child has trouble, you could draw a simple number line and show him how the larger numbers are farther on the line. My Four had no trouble figuring out greater than/less than for amounts under 10. After doing a variety of counting activities over the last year, he can count objects up to about 20 without much difficulty. After counting each pile, he identified the larger one and chose which alligator he would need to swallow up the bigger amount. We started by getting out our toy food and putting it in small piles that I knew my Four could count. After printing on cardstock and laminating, I brought them to the playroom. You can do this activity using only two things:Ī) the free alligator printables (get them at the end of this post)ī) something to count, like a stack of toys or small math manipulatives (for older kids, you just need a dry erase or chalk board)Īmong the three kids (ages 4, 5, and 7) we learned more about:įirst, I created some simple alligator less than, greater than, and equal to printables. Yes, I realize that’s stretching it! But my goal is to put together a variety of math activities, not to match the letter exactly ). how about a less than, greater than, e qual to lesson? Letter Q‘s a tough one! We’ve already done quite a few lesson on coins, so quarters didn’t seem the way to go. Given two sets of objects with one set having more or less, STUDENT will count the number of objects to determine which set has more/less/or if they are equal, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.We’re on a journey to explore the whole alphabet, and for each letter I choose a particular math activity for preschoolers which can often be adapted for older children as well. (More/Less: Greater Than/Less Than/Equal)ġ. Given a set of objects, STUDENT will “take away”, or subtract the subtrahend (pre-determined or student’s choice), in order to solve and write the difference, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR. Given three sets of objects to count, STUDENT will write “how many” for each addend to determine the sum of three numbers, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.ġ. Given two sets of objects to count with a sum up to _(10/15/20), STUDENT will count each set and write the number for each addend and add to determine “how many” (sum), with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.Ģ. Given numbers from 0-30 to trace, STUDENT will trace each single and double-digit number by tracing along the given dashed numbers, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.ġ. Given a visual number chart or number cards and a teacher request to (touch the number/say the number/indicate on voice output device), STUDENT will comply with the request, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.ģ. Given a number from _(0-3, 4-7, 8-10, etc.), STUDENT will say the number name and write the number with correct formation, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.Ģ. Given a written number, STUDENT will count out the same number of objects, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.ġ. Given objects to count up to _(10/12/15/20), STUDENT will demonstrate one-to-one correspondence by independently counting the correct number of objects, with 80% accuracy, in 4 out of 5 opportunities, by MONTH, YEAR.Ģ.
