Counting Apples

Since this month starts fall/autumn and I had a request in my group, I decided to get a jump on it and start making things to share.  The request was for some counting mats with apples.

I’ve come up with Counting Apples for the Apple Tree and I went with the number word on the tree and the numeral on the basket.  That number of apples will be placed on the mat.  This activity will work on a couple of skills for little ones.  These mats are for counting 0-25.

Circus Train Ordinals

I had big plans for more freebies through the weekend, but I only got one thing created.  That’s alright though, because I celebrated Mother’s Day with my family and did nothing except enjoy my day!!  I did manage to get one item made, and I’m really happy with it.

This is a set of strip cards to place on a ring so the kids can flip through them.  They cover the ordinals of first through twelfth.  The ordinal numeral with the circus act is matched to the ordinal word on the circus train car.

I recommend printing on card stock and then laminating for extra durability.  Also, since they’re ring cards, you want want to attach a small piece of velcro to each train car and the backs of the circus acts.  That way, they won’t fall off if you use them as ring cards and not just cards to lay flat on the table top.
