After each throw talk about the score: There were ten pins and we knocked over 6. Make a bowling set using ten cardboard tubes which can be knocked over with a soft ball. GAMES TO PRACTICE ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION Through fun activities, math centers help bring academic content to life and encourage students to make real-world connections!įind out what kids like to do and team that up with ways to incorporate math concepts and skills. Students will most likely show greater interest if they see the centers as a fun challenge rather than work.Children with an interest in art might enjoy using pentominoes (sets of small squares) to form different shapes.They can practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing decimals as they try to determine how to use $65 to feed four people when ordering food from a restaurant menu.Kids can improve their ability to make and test predictions by outlining their hands and feet on graph paper and predicting whether their hand or foot has the greatest length and width.Math centers are small-group stations where youth work together on fun activities like puzzles, problems that use manipulatives (physical objects that help students visualize relationships and applications), and brainteasers.Who says learning and having a good time don’t mix?
Consider presenting math mixed with a whole lot of fun! The following activities are fantastic for classrooms (Most are great for home!) –however, in ‘Afterschool’ programs we strive to present academics differently than what is taught during the school day! Math certainly fits into that category. Math doesn’t have to be boring, as you will find out with these fun math activities.
