Combine counting, writing numbers, craft and creativity with a circle caterpillar craft. Everything one child needs is on one page to print - available to our Pond Coloring Club members.
Your children can:
- track (trace inside the lines) the numbers 1 to 5
- color or paint the pieces
- assemble their caterpillar
After making their caterpillar, play a number game with dice and counters: Butterfly.
Math Warm Up Roll and Cover: Butterfly
- roll a standard dice
- if you roll a 6, roll again
- roll a 1 to start, covering number 1 on your caterpillar with a counter
- keep rolling and cover the numbers in counting order
- when all 5 are covered- call 'cocoon'
- to finish, remove counters, counting backwards
- optional: score a butterfly sticker or stamp - collect 5 over the week each time you play (collect on an Itty Bitty for motivation)
Have fun in math today!
