rainbow tally marks worksheets Archives

One of the things I love most about spring is waiting for rain showers to end so we can try to spot some rainbows.

You know how you always heard about “the end of the rainbow”? Well, it turns out there is no end.

I just read the other day that the rainbow always changes arc direction depending on your position. So as you travel, it seems to travel too.

Bummer.

They may not be what they appear, but rainbows are still plenty of fun for kids.

And that’s why I thought I’d make some rainbow tally marks worksheets for kids who are working on counting with tally marks!

These would be fantastic for spring math centers! Simply laminate the pages and let students use them with dry erase markers!

Counting with tally marks can seem old-fashioned, but it’s still a wonderful math skill for kids to learn.

When students use tallies, they practice one to one correspondence, skip counting by fives, and number sense (understanding what numerals actually mean).
