I haven't posted in awhile so I thought I would post a math center idea, especially since I have recently hit 50 followers!! Yay! Here are 10 math things to do with old calendars.
You can:
1. Count along with the numbers
2. Play number bingo--(as a math station you can record yourself calling numbers)
3. Write the numbers in each square (it is great to the have the model there)
4. Use a marker to make that many dots in the square
5. Cut them apart and glue them on a sentence strip (could make it into a headband)
6. Cut them apart, give each child one number and then make them put themselves in number order
7. Cover up a number and play guess the number with a partner
8. Roll and color that many squares until you get to the end
9. Skipping counting, count and circle by 2s, 5s, 10s
10. Make tally marks in each square according to the number there
Time to start asking parents for their 2010 calendars!!!
you can always use the May calender for the Jan of next year till you buy the new calender.
