This pumpkin count and cover math activity would be perfect for your preschool or kindergarten math centers. It’s a fun counting activity for your pumpkin theme!
Pumpkin Count and Cover Math Activity
If you looking for a hands-on, differentiated way for your students to learn counting, number recognition and number sense, then these pumpkin count and cover mats are perfect for you!
They require no-prep other than printing and slipping into write and wipe pockets or laminating. There is no cutting involved. Plus, they come in color AND black and white options.
They would be a great addition to your fall math stations!
Differentiated Counting Activities
What’s even better is that they are differentiated for the different needs of your students. Some students can work on numbers 1-5, others can work on 1-10, and your more advanced group can use the 11-20 mats.
There are mats with numbers, ten frames, and twenty frames so you can differentiate even further by using the different types of mats.
Students can also work on their own or with a buddy.
Add in fine motor work by having students use kid-safe plastic tweezers to move the mini erasers to the spaces on the mats.
Setting Up the Pumpkin Count and Cover Mats
Adult supervision is required for all activities I share. Please use discretion when doing the activities with children and only do activities that you feel are safe for your kids. Children under 3 should not participate in any activities that involve small pieces.
