Polar Animal Pattern Activity for First Grade
We’ve been having an unseasonably warm winter down South this year. But that changed drastically this week. Last week, we had highs in the 70s. This week, we woke up to 25 degrees in the morning.

Counting Crows! Write and Wipe Addition Cards

Preschool Worksheets: Apple Seek and Find Shapes Worksheets
Do you remember how old you were when you first learned how to recognize shapes? I remember learning about the octagon in particular, because I started looking for STOP signs just so I could say “octagon” and feel really smart. When you’re teaching preschool, shapes are a critical math skill to cover. The great thingKeep Reading…
Easy and Fun Outdoor Math Games for Kids
Math is one of those topics that children either love or seem to struggle with a little bit. It’s no different in our family. I have one child who seems to “get” math concepts right away, but for the others, it takes a little time. (And preferably a lot of movement.) So that’s why IKeep Reading…
