Using this Rainbow Number Hunt Activity

This activity is super simple for students to use. They will walk around the room looking for the ten-frame or twenty-frame cards. Once they find a card, they will subitize or count the dots in the cloud ten-frame. They will color the matching dot with the numeral on it and look for the other ten-frame cards.

This tool is excellent for an early childhood classroom because students can practice numbers 0-20. Counting practice tasks is essential in the early years, so giving students fun, engaging ways to develop these skills is crucial. This one also has the added benefit of getting them up and moving.

More Ideas for using the worksheets!

This rainbow find and cover the number activity provides an excellent way for students to move around the room while getting practice with counting and number recognition. There are several ways to differentiate it for your students.

Students who don’t enjoy coloring can cross off the numbers as they find them. Another option is to provide them with manipulatives to mark the numbers they find!

You can also slide the sheets into page protectors and give students dry-erase markers to use on them.

Students who need even more challenge can write the numerals next to each dot as they find them. Or they could write the number word.

This number sense activity will be a great addition to your math resources. Your students will be so excited to practice numbers this spring!
