Calendar Math Creative Activities part 3
Wyandotte PreK CenterJalynn L. Davis • Activity Title: Copying Patterns • GLE represented: 13 – Copying and repeating patterns using concrete objects • Materials needed: Blue and green strips of construction paper and glue sticks • Directions: TLW copy the pattern on the December calendar by making a • paper chain. TTW give each student 3 strips of each color paper and a • glue stick. TTW model how to make the paper chain as well as the pattern • for the students. TLW copy the teacher pattern utilizing all the paper strips • provided. • Evaluation: Copying pattern using 6 strips - M • Copying pattern using 2-4 strips – PM • Copying pattern using 0 -1 strip - NM
LaSalle ElementaryMary Wilhite • Activity Title: Chilly Willy (Winter Animals — Penguins)) • GLE represented: Ml, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M9, M1O • Materials needed: Pictures of Penguins with numerals 1-5 on chest, Sets of Small Hats of Different colors with Numerals 1-5, Sets of Snowballs (1-5), 25 Individual Snowballs (Styrofoam balls and/or pictures), 1-5 Spinner and/or 1-5 Dice • Directions: 1. Students match the number on the hat to the number on the penguin. • 2. Students match the number of individual snowballs to the picture of a targeted set of snowballs from 1-5. • 3. Students place penguins in number order 1-5 • 4. Students using 1-to-i correspondence count the number of snowballs on a card and matches it to the penguin (stickers on back of penguin/number set denote a correct answer) • 5. Students using snowball objects and/or pictures will identify pairs of objects as “Same or Different”,! • 6. Students using penguins with different colored hats will place the named penguin in the “First” or “Last” position (“Place the penguin with the red hat first in line.”) • 7. Using a spinner or dice, students place correctly the requested number of snowballs (objects/pictures). • Evaluation: Observational Data, Logs
Brownfields ElementarySheree Blanchard • We extend sorting and patterns throughout the day. During center time students practice their skills.
Villa del Rey ElementaryDianna Hammond and Michelle Grantham • Activity Title • Mystery Match • GLE represented: M-1, M-2, M-4, M-5, • Materials needed – Number cards or “dot” cards. 0 - 10 • Directions – Divide the class in half. Give half the class the number cards and give the other half the “dot” cards. Have the children move around the room to find their match. Redirect the students who can not find their partners. Alternative use is capital and lower case letters. • Evaluation- If the students can find their partner they are ready to move to a higher level such as numbers 10-20 or number words.
Parkview ElementaryConnie Boudreau • Activity Title • Sorting & Counting Christmas Items • GLE represented 9: Sorts concrete objects by an attribute • 5: Compares sets of objects using the words same/different • And more/less/fewer • Materials needed 4 different types of Christmas items; a sorting tray; a dry-erase board and a dry-erase marker; a bag to put the items in • Directions: Each child picked an item from the bag. We then took turns sorting the items. Each child placed his/her item in the correct square (using the sorting tray). After this was done the students counted the number of items in each square of the sorting tray. The teacher recorded their answers on a dry erase board. The students identified more/less, etc. • Evaluation Teacher observation; completed tally on the dry erase board; and student participation
Audubon ElementaryCarla Milton • Sorting • GLE represented: Sorts objects using one characteristic, sorts concrete objects by an attribute • Materials needed : Buttons of different shapes ( from calendar Math) • Directions : I used the buttons that were used with counting how many days we are at school with the calendar Math. The buttons were different shapes. Discussed how we could sort the buttons we chose to sort by shape. Have individual children sort the buttons by shape. Discussed the different shapes: hexagon, triangle, heart, diamond, circle, flower, square. • Evaluation: To make sure that the children understood I asked why the child put the triangle instead of the flower.
Park Forest ElementaryShelia Jarrell • Patterning • GLE represented : M5, M13 • Materials needed None • Directions: This simple activity is an extension of patterning. TLW line up facing teacher and listen for instructions. One child will leave shoes on and the next child will remove them. (shoes on, shoes off) • Evaluation: Observation by the teacher • Simple, yet fun activity! • Note: Have students say the action or pattern while performing it.
Riveroaks ElementaryNicole Berggren • Activity Title • Measuring with Candlesticks • Math GLE Represented • Measurement: 6. Uses comparative vocabulary (i.e. long/longer, short/shorter, more/less, hotter/colder, heavier/lighter, bigger/smaller) • Materials needed: numbered 1-10 candlestick pattern, Paper for recording, writing tools. • Directions • Have this center available for two children after being exposed to the nursery rhyme Jack be Nimble and the December Calendar Math candle pattern. • A child stands with his back against the candlesticks that go up the wall numbered 1-10. • Another child will help him read the number on the candle that correlates to the child’s height. • The child will then record his candlestick height on the provided paper. • Review each child’s results during a class discussion. • Evaluation • The child has correctly recorded his candlestick height on the provided paper.
Brookstown ElementaryAimee Fitzgerald • Activity Title • Make a Match – Christmas Style • GLE represented – Math 2- count a set of five or fewer numbers using one to one correspondence • Materials needed – Teacher made red cards with Christmas tree cut-outs; #s 0 -4, 2 of each • Directions – Play Make a Match, but switch up the cards with Christmas symbols or the current holiday or unit. • Evaluation – Observation: When a student comes to flip cards, • have them count the number of trees and compare to the other • card.
Brookstown ElementaryLaurie Malone • Activity Title • Joining Hands to Make a Pattern • GLE represented – Math 13- Recognize and copy repeated patterns • Materials needed – Joining Hands quilt; crayons • Directions – While coloring fingers every day, students will make a five color pattern. • Evaluation – Observation: Can the student choose the correct color in the pattern?
Park ElementaryPatty Hebert • Activity Title: Up, Up, and Away • GLE represented Counts a set of 5 or fewer objects using 1-t0-1 correspondence • Materials needed: Four colors of play dough, 4 pipe cleaners • Directions: Make a ball of play dough in a different color. • Match 1 ball with 1 pipe cleaner. • Count how many “balloons” there are. • Evaluation • production of “balloons” • Oral counting of set of balloons.
Jefferson Terrace ElementaryMargaret Miller • Activity Title • Making Calendar Pieces • GLE Represented: PK-CM-N5, N-1-E, N-3 E, PK-CM-G3, PK-CM-N2, G-2-E, PK-CM-D2 • Materials Needed: Depending on the Unit of study will determine with calendar pieces the class will make. Also as a class we sometimes vote on what two shapes that we want to make for our calendar. The calendar pieces are not seasonal; they are whatever unit we are on in the LA Comprehensive Curr. Example our December Calendar pieces were stick houses and pigs. • During the month of December we had a unit on Houses. Materials used to make houses: on the playground during Outside Time we brought a basket outside, before gathering the sticks needed for the house calendar pieces, we discussed what size sticks we needed. We decided the sticks can’t be any bigger than our “pinky finger”. For the House calendar pieces I used brown construction paper and cut out 4x4 squares for the children to glue the sticks on: the pig calendar pieces I cut out pink pigs using construction paper and the children pulled the “Collage Box” from the shelf in the ART Center and began gluing pink items found from the box. Examples of some items found in the box were different shades of pink tissue paper, beads, colored paper, etc. The children choose to come to the ART Table during center time to glue items on their choice of calendar piece- “Stick House” or a “Pink Pig”. Either the children or I will glue the large numbers on each calendar piece. Each calendar piece is about 4 inches. My calendar is about 36 x 28 inches. It is made using two posters put together.
River OaksElementaryPamella Walters • GLE’s represented: ELA 27, • Math 13 • Materials colors, Jack Be Nimble rhyme, candle stick color sheet • Directions: Students choose a color to make a pattern, Recite Jack Be Nimble
