Fun Math Activity

Stolen from my internship!

      I think I can explain this activity with a simple picture, but just in case there is some confusion, I'll leave a few simple instructions and a list of materials for y'all.


Materials Needed

Box (fishing/ outdoors stores)
Small Cotton Balls (colored if desired)
Tweezers (1 or 2 pairs)
Construction paper
Scissors
Pen or marker

Description and Brief Instructions

      This is a completed photo of the activity.  The student is to use the tweezers to pick up the small cotton balls and place them into the correct section.  Color does not mater.  Just the number matters. This was completed with a kindergartener who was struggling with their numbers, one-on-one with me outside of the classroom.  There are many different adaptations to this activity.  Students could work in pairs, match color and number or cotton balls, or even use sweethearts or seasonal items.  The possibilities are endless. 
Enjoy!
