Learning Shapes and Numbers

Pinspiration:  Six Shape Activities the Involve Movement

I'll keep this short and sweet.  As a math teacher/lover, I am always pinning fun activities to get my kids loving math as well.  Here is an easy one that my kiddos love.  This TBT is dedicated to a great activity I started 8 months ago that the kids still beg for.

Using tape, outline various shapes (I also did numbers) on the floor and make a card for each shape.  Have the kids pick a card and throw a bean bag on the shape.  I also like the idea of having the kids outline by driving a car over it or hopping/running/sliding/etc... to the shape matching the card they draw.

I know, I know, that tape will destroy my floor.  I don't really care, they are about to be redone.



Happy Playing!
