Spring Math Center Activity & Peter Rabbit Resources

Hello!

Welcome to 

Fluttering Through First Grade!

We have a ton of ideas to share and can't wait to get Hopping!

Spring is the perfect time to practice our coin counting. Plastic eggs make the perfect center material for holding coins, counters or any other math manipulative. Our class loves playing Egg-cellent Cents to practice their money counting skills.

We just introduced some new Spring Number Stations and our students are loving them!

They had some great coin counting practice with our Egg-cellent Cents Station. We just took 12 plastic easter eggs, numbered them (do tops and bottoms because you know they're going to separate then you're stuck with not knowing what top goes with what bottom) and put different coin amounts in each one.  

The students then opened up an egg, counted the coins inside, and recorded it next to the matching number on their recording page. They got so into it, that they actually started pretending to "crack" the eggs and split them open to see what's inside.  

One of our little learners even said,

"I could do this all day!" Shhhhh, don't tell her she's learning too!

Peter Rabbit is one of our most adored units each spring. It's a core literature selection for our grade level and we love digging deeper into this classic story. 

Spring is in full swing with our Tale of Peter Rabbit unit.

 We did a fun directed drawing of Peter and colored with oil pastels and chalk. Now that our kiddos know how to draw Peter, they are drawing him on everything! Peter appears in journals, on the backs of vocabulary pages, in workshop centers, and in their poetry journals. We love Peter!
