Weekly Math Tubs (with Freebies)

The last year was a rough year for me in all parts of my life.  Part of that was letting this blog go.  I am hopeful to start blogging what I am doing in my room more. 

So to jump in, I wanted to share my math tubs with you for this week.  Each week I have 5 math tubs that rotate to each table on different days.  We start our day with math so this gets us going as son as the bell rings.  I try to vary what is in the tubs as far as skills go.  The beginning of the year is a lot of counting practice.

Here is what my kids did this week:

How Many Spiders?

My students counted spider rings (Dollar Tree) onto the the X's and then used dry erase markers to write the numeral to match the amount.

Missing Ghosts
My students used dry erase markers to write the number that is missing in the sequence.

Pumpkins on the Fence
My students used pumpkin erasers (Target Dollar Spot) to count out onto the mats.  You could easily do orange playdough balls or pompoms as well.
