Math fun as a class or in small groups

Dollar Tree parts...popsicle sticks with hot glued numbers.  Pull a number...tell its name, count it, write it, draw it...pull two numbers to build a number from our number families.
Knock Out!  Roll the dice, put an object on the number match, whoever has all numbers covered first is the winner.  As students learn addition or subtraction, they work on their facts.  We did this as a class before I put it out for them to do on their own.
Plastic money to count out to match the price tags.  I purchased the cashbox from Amazon and it was used for organized storage, as well as for a pet store, ice cream shop, grocery store, and bank.  This was an idea I had to help keep all the coins sorted for easy use and practice.  "That idea sounded better in my head!"
Once the students get ahold of it...it is a mess!  Accept it and go on...or make it an activity the next time...sorting coins with like coins!
