3 Elementary Math Activities - Unicorn Edition

3 Elementary Math Activities - Unicorn Edition



Three Elementary Math Activities


Elementary math activities are fundamental to any elementary classroom. These three elementary math activities are super easy to set up and the kids love them! I use these activities during the month of May when the kids are wanting to be on summer break or on a dreary day to liven up the classroom a little. These elementary math activities are great for reinforcing basic addition, subtraction, and counting skills. If you are interested in these elementary math activities you can find out more here. Keep reading to learn more about Elementary Math Activities - Unicorn Edition.



Addition/ Subtraction Math Sort


First things first, the addition and subtraction math sort. I like to use this as a great "no paper" center. My kinders really enjoy centers where the only work they have to do is to move objects around with their hands. Included in this resource are unicorns with the numbers 1-20 and numerous addition and subtraction task cards for them to sort. You also have the added option of having the students write the answer on the line with a dry erase marker.



Number Counting


This resource also comes with a counting mat. If I am just planning to use the numbers 1-10, I like to cut the mats in half. However, if I am working with the numbers 11-20, I leave the whole page together. You can use any type of counters you wish, but my kids LOVE the mini erasers.




Addition/Subtraction Worksheet



The last elementary math activity in this unicorn edition is an addition/subtraction worksheet. For this activity, I like to either focus on 1-10 or 11-20. The kids then have to first sort the addition or subtraction task cards and then write the facts underneath the correct unicorn. If you teach the older kiddos, this could also be used without the task cards to see if your students could come up with the math facts on their own.

Fall Fun!

Fall Fun!


Every year I try to do different activities to keep things fresh for me and my kiddos.

This year I decided to read this book:

http://www.amazon.com/The-Little-Lady-Afraid-Anything/dp/0064431835


The kiddos loved it! I had them act out the different sounds. After the story I had them do a writing prompt about what they love about Fall. Then, we made scarecrows.

This is a picture from when they were "drying".


The finished project is lining the hallway, ready to greet the parents for Open House!

Stay classy my friends! :-)

TpT Makeover + New Products

TpT Makeover + New Products



If any one has been following my TpT store, then you have noticed that I have been posting a lot of new products.

However, if you're not following my store feel free to click the link here: Teaching in Bows, Pearls, and Glitter

One of my new products is a Readers' Theater for the classic book, Tops and Bottoms.




I used this in my classroom and the kids absolutely LOVED it! They wanted to perform the play over and over again. :-)


Another product is my IEP Meeting Reminder Notes. These can be printed on Post-Its and given to teachers to remind them of the upcoming meeting. I know how busy teachers are and sometimes remembering there is an IEP meeting is the last thing on their mind. So, these Post-Its can be stuck anywhere! :-)




My last and newest of my products is my Apples to Apples Multiplication Activities packet.


When I was teaching my students their multiplication facts, a lot of them had trouble remembering or just didn't practice at home. I used this product as a center for extra practice.

The students would cut out the multiplication facts on the apples and glue them to the correct tree or basket. They had a lot of fun and when I collected them I could see which students need help on which multiplication fact. :-)

I will continue to add more multiplication activities because right now I only have 0 & 1 facts. Eventually, I will have them all. :-) *Working on more today*


If you decide to purchase one of my products, thank you SOOOO much! I appreciate every purchase, rating, and follower I get! :-)
